Journal ArticleDOI
Mode of inheritance of finger dermatoglyphic traits among Vaidyas of West Bengal, India
Mahua Sengupta,B. Karmakar +1 more
TL;DR: The present report supports the evidence of the existence of a major gene on these dermatoglyphic traits and the transmission of this effect is consistent with Mendelian expectation.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative digital and palmar dermatoglyphics: sexual dimorphism in the Chuvashian population of Russia.
TL;DR: The evidence indicates the possible role of environmental (prenatal) factors in the realization of dermatoglyphic sex differences among the Chuvashian population of Russia and corresponds better than fingers to the ethno historical background of the populations, ascertained by numerous studies.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative dermatoglyphics and population structure in Northwest India.
TL;DR: The pattern of external gene flow as inferred through R‐matrix analysis is consistent with the breeding and population structure of the groups, although genetic markers portray a relatively more realistic picture.
Journal Article
Sexual Dimorphism in the Chuvashian Population of Russia in Two Types of Dermatoglyphic Traits: Principal Component Analysis
TL;DR: The nature of variation of these components appears with a good similarity between sexes, which suggests their common biological validity of the underlying component structures of the finger and palmar dermatoglyphic characters.
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantitative palmar dermatoglyphics and the assessment of population affinities: data from marine fishermen of Puri, India.
TL;DR: Variation in quantitative dermatoglyphics among three endogamous groups of marine fishermen of Puri Coast, India, is greater for the palmar variables than for the fingers.
