Satellite sequences in chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Nucleic Acids and Protein Synthesis, 1973
Abstract Chimpanzee DNA was found to contain two satellite fractions when centrifuged in Ag+-Cs2SO4 density gradients: satellite A with a buoyant density of 1.696 gm/cm3 and satellite B with a buoyant density of 1.683 gm/cm3. It was shown that satellite A shares many of the physical properties of human satellite III, and cross hybridisation results ...

Pan troglodytes (Chimpanzee)

1967
At least 25 animals have now been studied with similar findings, Chiarelli, and Hamerton et al. report minor structural differences for the subspecies P. t. paniscus (pygmy chimpanzee). Satellites occur on the short arms of the acrocentrics. The Y may occasionally be metacentric (Chu and Bender).

Detection and molecular characterization of foamy viruses in Central African chimpanzees of the Pan troglodytes troglodytes and Pan troglodytes vellerosus subspecies

Journal of Medical Primatology, 2006
AbstractBackground  Foamy viruses are exogenous retroviruses that are highly endemic in non‐human primates (NHPs). Recent studies, mainly performed in North America, indicated frequent simian foamy virus (SFV) infection in persons occupationally exposed to NHPs. This zoonotic infection was demonstrated mainly after bites by chimpanzees [Pan troglodytes

Imitation recognition in a captive chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)

Animal Cognition, 2004
This study investigated the ability of a captive chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) to recognise when he is being imitated. In the experimental condition of test 1a, an experimenter imitated the postures and behaviours of the chimpanzee as they were being displayed.

Successful reproduction in wild-released orphan chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes troglodytes)

Primates, 2003
We report a case of successful reproduction in wild-released orphan chimpanzees. Using non-invasive genetic analysis, we determined the paternity of an infant born to a female chimpanzee released by HELP (Habitat Ecologique et Liberté des Primates) Congo into the Conkouati-Douli National Park, Republic of Congo.

Summation in the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes).

Journal of Experimental Psychology: Animal Behavior Processes, 1987
In this research, we asked whether 2 chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) subjects could reliably sum across pairs of quantities to select the greater total. Subjects were allowed to choose between two trays of chocolates. Each tray contained two food wells. To select the tray containing the greater number of chocolates, it was necessary to sum the contents of

Pan paniscus and Pan troglodytes

1984
Previous ape language studies have been undertaken with common chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes), orangutans (Pongo pygmaeus), and gorillas (Gorilla gorilla) (Gardner and Gardner, 1969; Rumbaugh, 1977, Savage-Rumbaugh, 1979; Miles, 1982; Patterson and Linden, 1981).

Sweating responses in the chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes)

Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Physiology, 1976
Abstract o 1. In contrast to man, in chimpanzees, rapid, heavy sweating is concentrated around the axillae rather than the chest and back. 2. Chimpanzees were unable to maintain a constant body temperature at ambient temperatures (Ta) above 37°C. 3. Evaporative water loss at Ta around 37°C were more than double that at 18·7°C. 4.

The complete mitochondrial genome of the central chimpanzee, Pan troglodytes troglodytes

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2015
This study first report the complete mitochondrial genome sequence of the central chimpanzee, Pan troglodytes troglodytes. The genome was a total of 16 556 bp in length and had a base composition of A (31.05%), G (12.95%), C (30.84%), and T (25.16%), indicating that the percentage of A + T (56.21%) is higher than G + C (43.79%).

Central Chimpanzees, Pan troglodytes troglodytes

2023
Abstract This chapter describes the Ubangi River in the northwestern Democratic Republic of Congo, which is an impassible divide of the schweinfurthii to its east and the troglodytes to its west. It talks about the known populations of chimpanzees that are dwindling through disease, hunting, and deforestation, although its total numbers ...
