Many genetic studies on catarrhines use microsatellite markers that were isolated from human DNA. A large number of these markers have been characterized in the great apes, macaques and baboons. However, there are few or no markers available for other members of this group. In this study, an extensive literature search was performed to find microsatellite markers that had been successfully amplified across a range of catarrhine species. These conserved loci can provide a valuable starting point for characterizing loci in other catarrhines. Finally, microsatellite markers were tested in a range of species that are not well represented in the literature.
许多关于狭鼻猴类的基因研究使用的是从人类DNA中分离出来的微卫星标记。其中大量标记已在大猩猩、猕猴和狒狒中得到表征。然而,对于该类群的其他成员,可用的标记很少或根本没有。在本研究中,进行了广泛的文献检索,以寻找在一系列狭鼻猴物种中成功扩增的微卫星标记。这些保守位点可为表征其他狭鼻猴类的位点提供有价值的起点。最后,在文献中代表性不足的一系列物种中对微卫星标记进行了测试。
