No evidence for natural selection on endogenous borna-like nucleoprotein elements after the divergence of Old World and New World monkeys. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Endogenous Borna-like nucleoprotein (EBLNs) elements were recently discovered as non-retroviral RNA virus elements derived from bornavirus in the genomes of various animals.

Revista do Instituto de Medicina Tropical de São Paulo, 2016 Nonhuman primates are considered as the natural hosts of Hepatitis A virus (HAV), as well as other pathogens, and can serve as natural sentinels to investigate epizootics and endemic diseases that are of public health importance. During this study, blood

The prion protein and New World primate phylogeny
Genetics and Molecular Biology, 2004 The PrP C prion protein contains 250 amino acids with some variation among species and is expressed in several cell types. PrP C is converted to PrP Sc by a post-translational process in which it acquires amino acid sequences of three-dimensional ...

The current status of the New World monkey phylogeny
Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2000 Four DNA datasets were combined in tandem (6700 bp) and Maximum parsimony and Neighbor-Joining analyses were performed. The results suggest three groups emerging almost at the same time: Atelidae, Pitheciidae and Cebidae.

BMC Ecology, 2006 Background One of the key tools for determining the social structure of wild and endangered primates is the ability to sex DNA from small amounts of non-invasive samples that are likely to include highly degraded DNA.

Easy rider: monkeys learn to drive a wheelchair to navigate through a complex maze. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 The neurological bases of spatial navigation are mainly investigated in rodents and seldom in primates. The few studies led on spatial navigation in both human and non-human primates are performed in virtual, not in real environments.

Chromosome Evolution in New World Monkeys (Platyrrhini) [PDF]
Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2012 During the last decades, New World monkey (NWM, Platyrrhini, Anthropoideae) comparative cytogenetics has shed light on many fundamental aspects of genome organisation and evolution in this fascinating, but also highly endangered group of neotropical primates.

Non-invasive Eye Tracking Methods for New World and Old World Monkeys
Frontiers in Behavioral Neuroscience, 2019 Eye-tracking methods measure what humans and other animals visually attend to in the environment. In nonhuman primates, eye tracking can be used to test hypotheses about how primates process social information.
