Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Reading disabilities (RD) and attention-deficit hyperactivity/disorder (ADHD) are two common childhood disorders that co-occur by chance more often than expected. Twin studies and overlapping genetic linkage findings indicate that shared genetic factors partially contribute to this comorbidity. Linkage of ADHD to 6p, an identified RD candidate locus, has previously been reported, suggesting the...
