Humans and platyrrhines share a pattern of articular variance
Abstract Previous work has identified a pattern of articular shape variation in modern human limb joints, in which convex joint surfaces exhibit constrained variance relative to their more variable concave conarticulars. This pattern is notable given that joint morphogenesis is influenced by local biomechanical environments, which vary substantially ...

Mapping Retrotransposon LINE-1 Sequences into Two Cebidae Species and Homo sapiens Genomes and a Short Review on Primates [PDF]
This work focuses on the distribution of LINE-1 (a Long Interspersed Nuclear Element) in primates and its role during evolution and as a constituent of the architecture of primate genomes.

Impacted Bones: Can Extant Primates Help Identify Tool Use in Early Hominins?
ABSTRACT Despite recent advances pushing back the earliest record of tool use, how and when it first emerged in hominins, and the extent to which it featured amongst the numerous co‐existing species, remain critical questions in paleoanthropology. In addition to analyzing fossils and lithic toolkits, novel strides in understanding this might be made by

LINE-1 are retrotransposable elements, a kind of repetitive DNA included in the heterochromatin regions of chromosomes. Repetitive DNA represent one of the major genomic components which role is not still clear challenging genomic assembly.

Evolutionary Signal and Development of the Foramen Dorsum Sellae (Nov.) Across Primates
The dorsum sellae of the sphenoid bone occasionally exhibits an accessory opening, though its significance is unknown. We scored its presence in humans (N = 114) and 30 non‐human primate genera (N = 1468) and combined histological, dissection‐based, and phylogenetic approaches to understand its function. The foramen occurred in 12% of humans and 33% of

Amplification Dynamics of Platy-1 Retrotransposons in the Cebidae Platyrrhine Lineage
Platy-1 elements are Platyrrhine-specific, short interspersed elements originally discovered in the Callithrix jacchus (common marmoset) genome. To date, only the marmoset genome has been analyzed for Platy-1 repeat content. Here, we report full-length Platy-1 insertions in other New World monkey (NWM) genomes (Saimiri boliviensis, squirrel monkey ...

ABSTRACT The emergence of anthelminthic resistance is a well‐documented phenomenon in livestock and companion animals. Given the scarcity of new antiparasitic drugs, the implementation of effective, holistic anthelminthic control strategies is critical to preserving the efficacy of existing treatments.

Abstract Knowing about species interactions is essential for ecological research, conservation efforts, resource management, and maintaining healthy ecosystems, but many of these, such as reports of predation, may not always be published in easily located resources—if they are published at all.

Phylogenomics of Amazonian squirrel monkeys (Saimiri: Primates, Cebidae)
Phylogenetic relationships among squirrel monkeys (genus Saimiri) are still poorly resolved. Morphology-based taxonomies range from two to 12 taxa, while molecular phylogenies have recovered up to 17 different lineages. The last species account lists 11 taxa: Saimiri boliviensis boliviensis, S. boliviensis peruviensis, S. vanzolinii, S.
