Demography and pedigree structure of an SPF colony of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta )
The SPF rhesus colony at the M.D. Anderson Cancer Center in Bastrop, Texas, was analyzed with the aim of determining the demographic and genetic effects of stringent selection for virus‐free breeders, permanent quarantine, continued surveillance, and culling of animals that show evidence of viral infection. The analysis shows minimal effects on population viability and loss of genetic variability in comparison with the traditionally managed (non‐…
Individual Identification and Paternity Determination in Chimpanzees (Pan troglodytes) Using Human Short Tandem Repeat (STR) Markers
Classical genetic markers and DNA markers
Genetic structure of three populations of rhesus macaques ( Macaca mulatta )
One of the prime concerns at zoos and at primate breeding facilities is to maintain genetic variability. This can be accomplished by avoiding inbreeding. It is relatively easy to assess genetic variability and the level of inbreeding by using pedigree information and genetic markers. In this study we used genetic markers controlled by 6 independent polymorphic loci ( GPI , PGD , CA2 , MPI , DIA1 , Tf ) to ascertain genetic variation in two captiv…
Three new blood groups of rhesus monkeys
Three new blood group systems, called “T,” “U,” and “V,” have been identified in the rhesus monkey ( Macaca mulatta ). Each system consists of a single antigenic factor (blood group) detected by a monospecific alloimmune reagent that agglutinates erythrocytes. The antisera that detect these blood groups were obtained following a series of alloimmunizations and absorption fractionizations of the resulting antisera to produce operationally monospec…
A demographic analysis of the Wisconsin Regional Primate Center rhesus colony, 1962–1982
A detailed demographic analysis was made of the Wisconsin Regional Primate Research Center rhesus colony from vital statistics recorded over a 20‐year period. Techniques used were based on demographic and epidemiological methods developed for human populations, which provide the potential for making standardized measurements within captive primate colonies. A life table based on 1,086 deaths showed an abnormally high survivorship at the older age…
The effects of dominance on mating behavior and paternity in a captive troop of rhesus monkeys ( Macaca mulatta )
The effects of social dominance on male mating behavior and paternity in a troop of rhesus monkeys ( macaca mulatta ) were examined. A wild‐caught troop of monkeys, captured in India in 1972, has been monitored in captivity for eight years. Some animals have been culled from this troop, but no new animals have been added except through births. The social structure of the troop has remained fairly stable over the eight years, although the number o…
