Combined genome-wide association study of 136 quantitative ear morphology traits in multiple populations reveal 8 novel loci.

Human ear morphology, a complex anatomical structure represented by a multidimensional set of correlated and heritable phenotypes, has a poorly understood genetic architecture. In this study, we quantitatively assessed 136 ear morphology traits using deep learning analysis of digital face images in...
