Heterozygous parents have the same odds of identical twins as the general population.

Identical twins do not run in families and, therefore, twinning is not related to genetics. Comparisons among different ethnic groups rule out an ethnic cause-no difference.

Only mother's age correlates with twinning: the older the mother, the greater the likelihood.
