Abstract
A path analysis of published reports on family resemblance reveals an important role for genetic factors in all lipids and lipoproteins, with no evidence of a discrepancy between twins and other relatives (which might be due to dominance or epistasis) nor between studies which used environmental indices and those which did not. Family environment within population is less important and is significantly greater for twins than for other relatives.Entities:
