Mitochondrial DNAs (mtDNAs) purified from 25 samples of 6 species of macaques, Macaca mulatta, M. fascicularis, M. arctoides, M. nemestrina, M. assamensis and M. thibetana, were analyzed to study the phyletic relationships among the species. A total of 36-46 sites was observed in each sample. By combining the cleavage patterns for each of the endonucleases, the 25 samples were classified into 11 restriction types. When data on M. fuscata and M. cyclopis collected by other authors were added to our own, the resultant molecular phylogenetic trees indicated that the 8 species may be divided into 4 groups: (1) M. mulatta, M. fuscata, M. cyclopis and M. fascicularis; (2) M. arctoides; (3) M. nemestrina; (4) M. assamensis and M. thibetana. Our results suggest that within both the fascicularis and sinica groups genetic distances are small between members and that the status of the species within the groups may require further investigation.
从6种猕猴（恒河猴、食蟹猴、熊猴、豚尾猴、藏酋猴和阿萨姆猴）的25个样本中纯化出线粒体DNA（mtDNA），进行分析以研究这些物种之间的系统发育关系。每个样本共观察到36 - 46个位点。通过组合每种核酸内切酶的切割模式，25个样本被分为11种限制类型。当将其他作者收集的关于日本猕猴和台湾猕猴的数据添加到我们自己的数据中时，所得的分子系统发育树表明这8个物种可分为4组：（1）恒河猴、日本猕猴、台湾猕猴和食蟹猴；（2）熊猴；（3）豚尾猴；（4）藏酋猴和阿萨姆猴。我们的结果表明，在食蟹猴组和中国猕猴组中，成员之间的遗传距离较小，并且组内物种的地位可能需要进一步研究。
