Genetic contributions to expression of the baboon cingular remnant.

Abstract excerpt

Primitive mammalian molar morphology is characterised in part by a ridge of enamel that encircles the entire base of the molar crown, the cingulum. Many higher primates have reduced the cingulum, but often retain remnant features on the lingual surface of maxillary molars and the labial surface of mandibular molars. Two of these remnants in cercopithecoid primates, the interconulus and interconulid, are...
