A Genome-Wide Association Study Identifies Five Loci Influencing Facial Morphology in Europeans

Inter-individual variation in facial shape is one of the most noticeable phenotypes in humans, and it is clearly under genetic regulation; however, almost nothing is known about the genetic basis of normal human facial morphology. We therefore conducted a genome-wide association study for facial sha...
