The rich diversity of morphology and behavior displayed across primate species provides an
informative context in which to study the impact of genomic diversity on fundamental …

Personalized genome sequencing has revealed millions of genetic differences between
individuals, but our understanding of their clinical relevance remains largely incomplete. To …

Of all the non-human primate species studied by researchers, the rhesus macaque (Macaca
mulatta) is likely the most widely used across biological disciplines. Rhesus macaques have …

Speciation and hybridization are intertwined processes in the study of evolution.
Hybridization between sufficiently diverged populations can result in genomic conflict within …

The environment has an important effect on the gut microbiota—an essential part of the
host's health—and is strongly influenced by the dietary pattern of the host as these together …

We identified tuberculosis in 1,836 macaques from 6 wild rhesus (Macaca mulatta), 23
common long-tailed (M. fascicularis fascicularis), and 6 Burmese long-tailed (M. fascicularis …

Herpes B virus (BV) is a zoonotic virus which can be transmitted from macaques to humans,
which is often associated with high mortality rates. Because macaques often exhibit …

The genus Macaca serves as an ideal research model for speciation and introgressive gene
flow due to its short period of diversification (about five million years ago) and rapid radiation …

Climate changes at larger scales have influenced dispersal and range shifts of many taxa in
East Asia. The fascicularis species group of macaques is composed of four species and is …

Background This study examined the population structure of Macaca fascicularis aurea and
their genetic relationships with M. f. fascicularis and M. mulatta. Methods The study analyzed …
