Among 73 postnatal ossification centers, sister-sister (SS) corretions involving age at appearance tend to exceed brother-brother (BB) and sister-brother (SB) correlations by an average of 0.16. This excess of SS over BB ...
Analysis of triquetral-lunate fusion
(Wiley Subscription Services, Inc., A Wiley Company, 1971-05)
