Misunderstandings in MZ twins. “Estimates of heritability of liability to a number of diseases turned out to be quite high. This was a surprise to those not versed in quantitative genetics who tended to think that low concordances rates in MZ twins implied low heritability.” Fraser (1976) . Associate . Professor.
