First, autism may not be rigidly determined but instead may be related to common gene variants, called polymorphisms, that may be derailed by environmental triggers.

But the exact causes of the vast majority of autism - related disorders remain a mystery: classic genetic studies, which tie the ailment to single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs — deletions, additions or substitutions of one unit in the genetic code), have returned a number of different markers with very few well - replicated candidates.

In addition, we analysed sequence data from sixty individuals representing six closely related species from Lake Victoria, and show genome - wide diversifying selection on coding and regulatory variants, some of which were recruited from ancient polymorphisms.
