Genetic analysis of patterns of growth in infant recumbent length.

Human biology - 1 Dec 1993

Towne B, Guo S, Roche A F, Siervogel R M

Abstract excerpt

A genetic basis to growth and development has been demonstrated in many heritability studies of anthropometrics. Although such measures describe the extent of growth at particular times, they do not fully address the process of growth. We applied a three-parameter curve-fitting function to serial...
