Blood ties: ABO is a trans-species polymorphism in primates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
The ABO histo-blood group, the critical determinant of transfusion incompatibility, was the first genetic polymorphism discovered in humans. Remarkably, ABO antigens are also polymorphic in many other primates, with the same two amino acid changes ...

Early Detection of Neuroinflammation and White Matter Damage Following Dorsal Spinal Nerve Root Sectioning in a Nonhuman Primate Model

open access: yesMagnetic Resonance in Medicine, Volume 95, Issue 5, Page 2786-2796, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Purpose Dorsal rhizotomy, or spinal dorsal nerve root lesioning, is a surgical procedure used to treat intractable nerve pain by selectively severing sensory afferent nerve roots. This study aimed to evaluate whether multiparametric MRI, including diffusion tensor imaging (DTI), quantitative magnetization transfer (qMT), chemical exchange ...

A perspective on color vision in platyrrhine monkeys [PDF]

open access: yes, 1960
Studies carried out over the past two decades show that many platyrrhine (New World) monkeys have polymorphic color vision. This condition results from the sorting of allelic versions of X-chromosome cone opsin genes at a single gene site, yielding a ...

Gestural Sequences in Wild Spider Monkeys (Ateles geoffroyi)

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Primatology, Volume 88, Issue 4, April 2026.
Geoffroy's spider monkeys produce gestural sequences in the wild, mostly during aggressive, playful and sexual interactions. ABSTRACT To date, research on gestural communication in species other than great apes has been quite limited, especially in their natural habitat, although including a broader range of species in different settings is essential ...

Comparison of musculoskeletal networks of the primate forelimb [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Anatomical network analysis is a framework for quantitatively characterizing the topological organization of anatomical structures, thus providing a way to compare structural integration and modularity among species.

Partner Choice and Context‐Dependent Sex Differences in Rat Rough‐and‐Tumble Play

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Neuroscience, Volume 63, Issue 3, February 2026.
When given partner choice in triadic play, male rats showed a robust preference for female partners, whereas females formed partner preferences that were not sex specific. Females initiated less play in mixed‐sex groups but played at male‐typical levels in all‐female groups, demonstrating that sex differences in rough‐and‐tumble play arise both from ...

Object grasping and manipulation in capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The abilities to perform skilled hand movements and to manipulate objects dexterously are landmarks in the evolution of primates. The study of how primates use their hands to grasp and manipulate objects in accordance with their needs sheds light on how ...

Cicada as a food for mammals: a global review and implications for mammal behaviour and populations

open access: yesWildlife Biology, Volume 2026, Issue 1, January 2026.
Cicadas (Hemiptera: Cicadidae) are among the most important insect prey for many vertebrate predators, including birds and mammals, owing to their large size and high nutritional value. Although the ecological roles of cicadas as prey for birds have been well documented, the interactions between mammals and cicadas are relatively unknown.
