Molecular and morphological detection of Plasmodium species in wild macaques in Selangor, Malaysia [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
Malaria is a serious global health problem, and rapid, accurate diagnosis is required to control the disease. A number of methods have been developed in recent years for diagnosing this disease, including polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based technique ...

Speciation over the edge: Gene flow among non-human primate species across a formidable biogeographic barrier [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Many genera of terrestrial vertebrates diversified exclusively on one or the other side of Wallace’s Line, which lies between Borneo and Sulawesi islands in Southeast Asia, and demarcates one of the sharpest biogeographic transition zones in the ...

A Framework to Analyze Primate Species Vulnerability to Trade in Urban Markets

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 87, Issue 12, December 2025.
A primate‐focused conservation criminology framework to examine taxon‐specific vulnerability to live trade in urban markets. ABSTRACT Live primates are increasingly commodified and appropriated as inputs into markets, both at the international and domestic scales, and across physical and online platforms.

Linking individual variation in facial musculature to facial behavior in rhesus macaques

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, Volume 308, Issue 12, Page 3105-3121, December 2025.
Abstract Facial expression is a key component of primate communication, and primates (including humans) have a complex system of facial musculature underpinning this behavior. Human facial musculature is highly variable across individuals, but to date, whether other primate species exhibit a similar level of inter‐individual variation is unknown ...

‘O sibling, where art thou?’ – a review of avian sibling recognition with respect to the mammalian literature [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Avian literature on sibling recognition is rare compared to that developed by mammalian researchers. We compare avian and mammalian research on sibling recognition to identify why avian work is rare, how approaches differ and what avian and mammalian ...

Illegal Wildlife Trade in a Tourism and Biodiversity Hotspot

open access: yesSustainable Development, Volume 33, Issue 6, Page 9106-9122, December 2025.
ABSTRACT There are clear connections between tourism, development, and sustainable use—particularly in biodiversity hotspots, where tourists may unknowingly purchase souvenirs made from protected wildlife. This issue is explicitly recognized in the Sustainable Development Goals, including SDG15, Life on Land, and SDG16, Peace, Justice, and Strong ...

Population genetic analysis of Plasmodium knowlesi reveals differential selection and exchange events between Borneo and Peninsular sub-populations

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
The zoonotic Plasmodium knowlesi parasite is a growing public health concern in Southeast Asia, especially in Malaysia, where elimination of P. falciparum and P. vivax malaria has been the focus of control efforts.

Single-cell and single-nucleus RNA-seq uncovers shared and distinct axes of variation in dorsal LGN neurons in mice, non-human primates, and humans

open access: yeseLife, 2021
Abundant evidence supports the presence of at least three distinct types of thalamocortical (TC) neurons in the primate dorsal lateral geniculate nucleus (dLGN) of the thalamus, the brain region that conveys visual information from the retina to the ...

Timing the origin of human malarias: the lemur puzzle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Background Timing the origin of human malarias has been a focus of great interest. Previous studies on the mitochondrial genome concluded that Plasmodium in primates, including those parasitic to humans, radiated relatively recently during a ...
