- How genetic is school myopia? (2005, background): “…Significant genetic contributions to eye size might be expected, in view of the abundant evidence for genetic contributions to growth processes which result, for example, in variations in height both within and between populations (Silventoinen et al., 2000; Silventoinen , 2003; Wu et al., 2003).”
- Heritability of Adult Body Height: A Comparative Study of Twin Cohorts in Eight Countries (2003, background): “The increase in body height has been uniform with the possible exceptions of the two world wars, and it seems to be a universal process occurring worldwide in both affluent societies and in the developing world (Silventoinen, 2003).”
