Genome scans of facial features in East Africans and cross-population comparisons reveal novel associations.

Genome scans of facial features in East Africans and cross-population comparisons reveal novel associations.

Facial morphology is highly variable, both within and among human populations, and a sizable portion of this variation is attributable to genetics. Previous genome scans have revealed more than 100 genetic loci associated with different aspects of normal-range facial variation. Most of these loci ha...
