This study of a group of semi-free-ranging Barbary macaques Macaca sylvanus aimed to determine paternity, to establish whether any individual male achieved prominent mating success and to assess genetic variability. Analyses involved electrophoresis of 15 blood protein systems and multilocus DNA fingerprinting (isotopic and nonisotopic). Genetic variability was low; only two blood protein systems were polymorphic. Although all DNA-fingerprints were individual-specific, they showed a high average band-sharing index value (0.67). Nevertheless, a combination of all methods permitted inference of paternity in 11 out of 15 (73%) cases tested. Several males from different age classes fathered infants.
这项针对一群半放养的巴巴利猕猴（猕猴属）的研究旨在确定父系关系，确定是否有个别雄性在交配方面取得显著成功，并评估遗传变异性。分析涉及15种血液蛋白质系统的电泳和多位点DNA指纹识别（同位素和非同位素）。遗传变异性较低；只有两种血液蛋白质系统具有多态性。尽管所有DNA指纹都是个体特异性的，但它们显示出较高的平均条带共享指数值（0.67）。然而，综合所有方法，在15例测试案例中有11例（73%）能够推断出父系关系。不同年龄组的几只雄性都成为了幼崽的父亲。
