The results seen in the present study are inconsistent with those in previous reports in that the markers of KIAA0319 did not associate with dyslexia and the quantitative trait analyses show different associated markers that are not located around the first exon of KIAA0319. Also, the onset detection test of phonological awareness, instead of orthographic-related measure OC-choice is the most significantly associated reading skill found in this study that still remained significant after correction for multiple testing. The gene discussed is KIAA0319; the disease is dyslexia.
