| Abstract: | Genetic variation at the locus controlling A1 band of erythrocyte esterase was found in the Japanese macaque,Macaca fuscata. Existence of four alleles,Es-A 1 1 ,Es-A 1 2 ,Es-A 1 3 , andEs-A 1 4 , controlling the mobility of the band and codominance relation between them were postulated. A majority of the troops examined were monomorphic inEs-A 1 1-1 phenotype, and the variant phenotypes were observed to occur only in Yugawara-Ihama, Arashiyama, and Koshima areas. |
