Scale-dependent effects of a heterogeneous landscape on genetic differentiation in the Central American squirrel monkey (Saimiri oerstedii). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 Landscape genetic studies offer a fine-scale understanding of how habitat heterogeneity influences population genetic structure. We examined population genetic structure and conducted a landscape genetic analysis for the endangered Central American ...

Characterization of Satellite DNAs in Squirrel Monkeys genus Saimiri (Cebidae, Platyrrhini). [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2020 O gênero Saimiri é um quebra-cabeça taxonômico e filogenético de décadas para o qual a citogenética contribuiu com dados cruciais. Todas as espécies de Saimiri aparentemente têm um número diplóide de 2n = 44, mas variam no número de braços cromossômicos.

Habitat modification and gene flow in Saimiri oerstedii: Landscape genetics, intraspecific molecular systematics, and conservation [PDF]
, 2011 Habitat modification, when it results in population fragmentation, often results in the loss of genetic diversity due to reduced gene flow, inbreeding, and genetic drift. However, the severity of these effects depends on how diminished dispersal and gene
