“…For instance, different substitutions in both DYX1C1 and ROBO1 , two genes associated to dyslexia [ 57 – 59 ], have been positively selected in the human lineage: in the first case, after the separation of the evolutionary lines leading, respectively, to humans and the rest of higher primates [ 57 ] and, in the second case, between 12 and 16 million years ago [ 58 ]. As a complete genetic characterization of the Faculty of Language cannot be made with the exclusion of genes that, when mutated, impair other cognitive capacities besides language, the catalogue of genes of interest is expected to increase in the near future [ 60 , 61 ].…”
