Sample size, mean, standard deviation and range for age by cohort in females from same- and opposite-sex dizygotic twin pairs. Table S2. Sample size, mean, standard deviation, and range for age by cohort in males from same- and opposite-sex dizygotic twin pairs. Table S3. Sample size, mean, and standard deviation for height (cm) and BMI (kg/m2) by cohort in females from same- and opposite-sex dizygotic twin pairs. Table S4. Sample size, mean, and standard deviation for height (cm) and BMI (kg/m2) by cohort in males from same- and opposite-sex dizygotic twin pairs. (DOCX 45 kb

Additional file 2: Figure S1. of Does the sex of one’s co-twin affect height and BMI in adulthood? A study of dizygotic adult twins from 31 cohorts

The differences in height (cm) between opposite sex (OS) and same sex (SS) plotted against the mean heights (cm) of the cohorts for females and males. The figure examines whether the difference in height between OS and SS twins is greater in taller cohorts. The Spearman correlations are r = −0.16 and p = 0.39 for females and r = 0.10 and p = 0.59 for males. Figure S2. The differences in BMI (kg/m2) between opposite-sex (OS) and same-sex (SS) twins plotted against the mean BMIs (kg/m2) of the cohorts for females and males. The figure examines whether the difference in BMI between OS and SS twins is greater in heavier cohorts. The Spearman correlations are r = −0.39 and p = 0.029 in females and r = 0.10 and p = 0.61 for BMI in males. (DOCX 159 kb
