| Abstract: | We have studied highly repeated DNA sequences of three subspecies ofM. fascicularis (M.f. philippinensis M.f. mordax, M.f. fusca) and of two subspecies ofM. mulatta (M.m. lasiotus, M.m. mulatta). Restriction patterns were obtained after digestion with 9 restriction endonucleases and evidenced after southern blotting
and hybridization with Bam HI satellite DNA fragments fromM. fascicularis subspecies.
M. fascicularis andM. mulatta subspecies studied, present morphological differences but indistinguishable karyotypes: highly repeated DNA analysis, resulting
in the same restriction patterns for all the restriction sites studied with highly repeated DNA probes characteristic of the
threeM. fascicularis subspecies, gave arguments in favour of the high genetic homology ofM.f. philippinensis, M.f. mordax, M.f. fusca on one side, andM.m. lasiotus andM.m. mulatta on the other, which can be distinguished only on the basis of morphological criteria. |
