A locus on chromosome 1p34-36 (DYX8) has been linked to developmental dyslexia or
reading disabilities (RD) in three independent samples. In the current study, we investigated …

Reading disabilities (RD) have been linked and associated with markers on chromosome 6p
with results from multiple independent samples pointing to KIAA0319 as a risk gene and …

Reading disabilities (RD) have a significant genetic basis and have shown linkage to
multiple regions including chromosome 15q. Dyslexia susceptibility 1 candidate gene 1 …

Linkage between developmental dyslexia (DD) and chromosome 6p has been replicated in
a number of independent samples. Recent attempts to identify the gene responsible for the …

Dyslexia is a common heterogeneous disorder with a significant genetic component.
Multiple studies have replicated the evidence for linkage between variously defined …

Abstract DYX1C1 and KIAA0319 have been two of the most extensively studied candidate
genes for dyslexia given their important roles in the neuronal migration and neurite growth …

Developmental dyslexia, or reading disability, is a multigenic complex disease for which at
least five loci, ie DYX1–3 and DYX5–6, have been clearly identified from the human …

The DYX2 locus on chromosome 6p22. 2 is the most replicated region of linkage to
developmental dyslexia (DD). Two candidate genes within this region have recently been …

Dyslexia is a common and genetically complex trait that manifests primarily as a reading
disability independent of general intelligence and educational opportunity. Strong evidence …

Developmental dyslexia is characterised by difficulties in learning to read. As reading is a
complex cognitive process, multiple genes are expected to contribute to the pathogenesis of …
