The genetic basis of human height
Nature Reviews Genetics, Published online: 07 April 2025; doi:10.1038/s41576-025-00834-1Genetic factors that influence human height encompass rare monogenic variants as well as common and rare polygenic variants. In this Review, Bicknell et al. summarize our current understanding of the genetic underpinnings of human stature and link these genes to common developmental and cellular pathways that affect skeletal growth.
