Abstract excerpt
Developmental dyslexia (DD) is a complex neurodevelopmental heritable disorder. Among DD candidate genes, DCDC2 is one of the most replicated, with rs793862, READ1 and rs793842 likely contribute to phenotypic variability in reading (dis)ability. In this study, we tested the effects of these genetic variants on DD as a categorical trait and on quantitative reading-related measures in a sample of 555 Italian...
