Genotype-environment relationships: an analysis of stature distribution curves during the last century in Italy.

Annals of human biology - 1 Jan 2000

Terrenato L, Ulizzi L

Abstract excerpt

The secular trend of stature in Italy from 1874 to 1960 has been examined using military records concerning nearly complete samples of males born in Italy in given years. The national mean value increased by nine cm (about one cm/decade) and the averages of the different Italian regions tend progressively to aggregate towards higher values (the north) and lower ones (the south). The rate of increase of stature...
