Phylogeny of the macaques (Cercopithecidae: Macaca) based on Alu elements

Gene, 2009
Genus Macaca (Cercopithecidae: Papionini) is one of the most successful primate radiations. Despite previous studies on morphology and mitochondrial DNA analysis, a number of issues regarding the details of macaque evolution remain unsolved. Alu elements are a class of non-autonomous retroposons belonging to short interspersed elements that are ...

Hominoid-specific calretinin-immunopositivity of the optic radiation (geniculocalcarine tract). [PDF]

Anat Rec (Hoboken)
Calretinin‐immunostained coronal section through the primary (V1) and extrastriate (ExSt) cortex of the lar gibbon. Note that the optic radiation (OR) is strongly calretinin‐immunoreactive. This calretinin‐immunopositivity of the OR distinguishes the Hominoidea from other primates in terms of the neurochemistry of the OR.

First Comprehensive Characterization of Phayre’s Leaf-Monkey (Trachypithecus phayrei) Karyotype

Frontiers in Genetics, 2022
The chromosomal homologies of human (Homo sapiens—HSA) and Trachypithecus phayrei (TPH—Phayre’s leaf-monkey, family Cercopithecidae) have previously been studied by using classical chromosome staining/banding and fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH)
