Correlation matrices for palmar dermatoglyphic traits in twins.
Intraclass correlation values have been studied in a sample of 50 MZ and 50 DZ twins with respect to fourteen palmar dermatoglyphic metric traits in binary combinations. The results confirm the general trends already shown in singleton studies. The shape of the palmar surface does not appear to be significantly correlated with other metric traits. Generally speaking, a large independence has been found between the various traits.
