A mixed model for the relationship between climate and human cranial form.

American journal of physical anthropology - 1 Aug 2016

Katz David C, Grote Mark N, Weaver Timothy D

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVES: We expand upon a multivariate mixed model from quantitative genetics in order to estimate the magnitude of climate effects in a global sample of recent human crania. In humans, genetic distances are correlated with distances based on cranial form, suggesting that population structure influences both genetic and quantitative trait variation. Studies controlling for this structure have demonstrated...
