Genes and vocal learning.

Brain and language - 1 Oct 2010

White Stephanie A

Abstract excerpt

Could a mutation in a single gene be the evolutionary lynchpin supporting the development of human language? A rare mutation in the molecule known as FOXP2 discovered in a human family seemed to suggest so, and its sequence phylogeny reinforced a Chomskian view that language emerged wholesale in...
