Candidate genes have been identified for both reading and language, but most of the
heritable variance in these traits remains unexplained. Here, we report a genome‐wide …

Reading and language abilities are critical for educational achievement and success in
adulthood. Variation in these traits is highly heritable, but the underlying genetic architecture …

The use of spoken and written language is a fundamental human capacity. Individual
differences in reading-and language-related skills are influenced by genetic variation, with …

Reading and language abilities are heritable traits that are likely to share some genetic
influences with each other. To identify pleiotropic genetic variants affecting these traits, we …

Reading ability is a complex task requiring the integration of multiple cognitive and
perceptual systems supporting language, visual and orthographic processes, working …

Reading ability and specific reading disability (SRD) are complex traits involving several
cognitive processes and are shaped by a complex interplay of genetic and environmental …

Several genes have been suggested as dyslexia candidates. Some of these candidate
genes have been recently shown to be associated with literacy measures in sample cohorts …

Reading disabilities (RD) are the most common neurocognitive disorder, affecting 5% to
17% of children in North America. These children often have comorbid neurodevelopmental …

BACKGROUND: Several susceptibility genes have been proposed for dyslexia (reading
disability; RD) and specific language impairment (SLI). RD and SLI show comorbidity, but it …

Dyslexia is a common specific learning disability with a substantive genetic component.
Several candidate genes have been proposed to be implicated in dyslexia susceptibility …
