Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE(S): Developmental dyslexia is a heritable condition, with genetic factors accounting for 44-75% of the variance in performance tests of reading component subphenotypes. Compelling genetic linkage and association evidence supports a quantitative trait locus in the 6p21.3 region that encodes a gene called DCDC2. In this study, we explored the contribution of two DCDC2 markers to dyslexia, related reading...
