Finding specific genes that cause autism: a combination of approaches will be needed to maximize power.

S E Folstein1, E Bisson, S L Santangelo, J Piven.   

Abstract

Although autism is clearly inherited, it may be challenging to find the genes involved: The mechanism of inheritance is unknown, families with an autistic child are usually small, parent-child pairs are rare, and a fairly large number of genes may be involved, some or all of which may have a small effect on the phenotype. We discuss several strategies for finding genes, all of which may be used in combination to find the relevant genes.
