Molecular approaches to the genetic analysis of specific reading disability.

Abstract excerpt

Specific reading disability is a complex phenotype that is under both genetic and environmental influences. There is evidence for at least one major gene, which may be detectable by parametric linkage analysis, but detection of other quantitative trait loci may require nonparametric methods. Phenotype definition may also be critical in identifying genes that affect different components of the reading process....
