The genetics of asymmetry and diversity of finger ridge counts in man has been examined by jointly regressing the individual counts of each hand on to the mean values summed over left and right hands in a sample of twins. The resulting asymmetry terms are largely under environmental control but with a small significant genetic component. The diversity items show a larger degree of genetic control with a suggestion of dominance or additive X additive epistasis.
通过将双胞胎样本中每只手的个体计数与左右两手总和的平均值进行联合回归，对人类手指嵴纹计数的不对称性和多样性的遗传学进行了研究。由此产生的不对称项在很大程度上受环境控制，但有一个小的显著遗传成分。多样性项目显示出更大程度的遗传控制，有显性或加性X加性上位性的迹象。
