Narrow Versus Broad Phenotype Definitions Affect Genetic Analysis of Language More than Other Broad Autism Phenotype Traits
Our analysis elucidates the genetic architecture and interaction of ASD and language-related phenotypes. In addition, we reported a number of high-confidence candidate genes within the top linkage regions. These genes will provide insights into the genetic etiology of neurodevelopmental disorders.
