Occurrence of infection by Platynosomum illiciens (Braun, 1901) in captive neotropical primates

open access: yesPrimates, 2011
Platynosomum illiciens (Trematoda, Plagiorchida) is a trematode parasite reported in felids and falconiforms. It was identified in the gall bladder of eight captive neotropical necropsied primates from the National Primate Center (CENP), Ananindeua ...

Neotropical primate conservation

Journal of Human Evolution, 1989
Abstract The greatest threat to Neotropical primates is the loss of tropical forest for agriculture, ranching, commercial logging and hydroelectric projects. Hunting of primates for consumption or sale and live capture for the pet trade and for biomedical purposes is also a threat to certain species. Twenty-eight of the 76 Neotropical primate species

The primates of the Neotropics: genomes and chromosomes

Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2004
The classification of neotropical primates has been controversial. Different arrangements have been proposed, depending on taxonomic criteria and on the traits selected for phylogenetic reconstructions. These include gross morphologic characters, karyotypic attributes and DNA sequence data of nuclear and mitochondrial genes and of repetitive genomic ...

Identification of Bacterial Infection in Neotropical Primates

Microbial Ecology, 2013
Emerging infectious diseases usually arise from wild animal populations. In the present work, we performed a screening for bacterial infection in natural populations of New World primates. The blood cell bulk DNAs from 181 individuals of four Platyrrhini genera were PCR screened for eubacterial 16S rRNA genes.

β 2 -microglobulin in neotropical primates (Platyrrhini)

Immunogenetics, 1998
Nucleotide sequences for the three exons of the beta2-microglobulin (beta2m) gene (B2m) were determined for 135 animals representing 37 species and all 16 genera of neotropical primates (Platyrrhini). Twenty-eight different nucleotide sequences, encoding for 26 different proteins, were obtained.

DNA fingerprinting in three species of neotropical primates

American Journal of Primatology, 1996
DNA fingerprinting allows the simultaneous detection of a large number of hypervariable loci consisting of highly polymorphic tandem repeat units that are extensively dispersed in the genome. With the 33.6 human minisatellite probe, hypervariable fragments were detected, for the first time, in the genome of three different species of wild-caught ...

Alpha satellite DNA in neotropical primates (Platyrrhini)

Chromosoma, 1994
The alpha satellite DNA of Old World (catarrhine) primates usually consists of similar, but not identical, ca. 170 bp sequences repeated tandemly hundreds to thousands of times. The 170 bp monomeric repeats are components of higher-order repeats, many of which are chromosome specific.

Behavioural Thermoregulation in a Small Neotropical Primate

Ethology, 2014
AbstractThe maintenance of body temperature in endothermic animals imposes considerable metabolic costs that vary with air temperature fluctuations. To minimise these costs, endotherms can adopt certain behaviours to adjust the pattern of heat transfer between their bodies and the environment.

The Neotropical Primate Adaptation to Nocturnality

1996
The only primate with a nocturnal lifestyle in the neotropics is Aotus, the owl monkey. The genus is found from Panama to northern Argentina, and is very diverse. Twelve karyotypically distinct forms have diploid chromosome counts ranging from 46-58 (Hershkovitz, 1983; Ma et al., 1985; Pieczarka et al., 1993) and recent morphological and molecular ...
