Note: Variables as defined in Table 1; MZM = monozygotic male twin pairs; DZM = dizygotic male twin pairs; MZF = monozygotic female twin pairs, DZF = dizygotic female twin pairs; 95% Confidence Intervals for the Heritability estimates shown inside parentheses.

*

Heritability estimates from AE-models except for the estimate for RAPI18 from males, where a significant effect of Common Environments, C = .20 (.09, .26) was found.
