REVIEW
Evolution and Variation of Tooth Morphology and its Application in Human Population Phylogenetic Studies
HONG Shengjun, TAN Jingze MOE Key Laboratory of Contemporary Anthropology, School of Life Sciences, Fudan University, Shanghai 200433 China
ABSTRACT: As
an important research material, the human tooth shape is widely studied
in many aspects of anthropology, for instance, demonstrating the
relationships of human populations by exploring the evolution and
variation of their teeth. The human population relationships are mostly
focused on in the field of dental anthropology, measuring by the
geographic distribution of the metrical or non-metrical traits of the
teeth. As the non-metrical traits are usually less affected by the
environment factors than the metrical traits, researchers used to
analyze the distribution of the non-metrical traits, such as Shovel
UI1, Double Shovel UI1, and P/R/CA UM3, among human populations. In
this paper, we review the present methods, recent results, and problems
of these studies.
Key words: Non-metrical traits of teeth; Geographic distribution; Human population relationships
