Zygosity Test Based on Growth Measures: A Bayesian Approach
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 01 August 2014
Abstract
A statistical index is proposed in order to determine twin zygosity based on weight and height measures and a Bayesian test of hypotheses. Some Roman twin data are analyzed on the basis of the Euclidean distance index, which appears to be the best for an easy calculation and for its genetic interpretation based on the formulation of genetic distance.
