The purpose of the present invention is to provide a predictive marker for predicting the behavior of a next generation subject of male animal subjects. Specifically, when H3K79me3 of spermatocytes or sperm extracted from the body of a male animal subject is used as a marker, and the methylation level of H3K79me3 is examined from the spermatocytes cells or sperm taken from the male subject, the lower the methylation level of H3K79me3 of the male subject, the higher the probability of autistic pathogenesis or the onset of autistic-like behavior in the next generation subject. |
