Preferred Label : Lip prints;
Type : Other, mainly phenotypes with suspected mendelian basis;
Description : Like fingerprints, lip prints can be shown to be genetically determined to a significant
extent (Hirth et al., 1975). Although the genetics is multifactorial, the possibility
of identifying the effects of some single genes has not been excluded. *FIELD* SA
