Abstract: In this study, we collected and analyzed the dermatoglyphics of 200 individuals of the Truku people in Taiwan.Research method is ADA standard-CDA edition. Study item is CDA-standard of Ⅱ class model swatch. We report a wide range of dermatoglyphics variables including two class model swatch, atd angle, axial triradius percent distance, and simian line. This study is the first comprehensive dermatoglyphics research of Truku people of two class model swatch,and its dermatoglyphics data will be useful for future research in anthropology, genetics and medicine.
Dermatoglyphs is a biological trait of humans. It is a product of both genetic and environmental factors. Dermatoglyphs are different among individuals and stable for whole life, so they are useful for identifying individuals. They also have specificity for populations or ethnic groups. Population dermatoglyphics present the stable variation within a population and also the variation among populations. Also, population dermatoglyphics can find markers that may help to trace the origin of populations or ethnic groups.
