Abstract excerpt
Five tandem repeat loci were studied in humans and chimpanzees using VNTR probes derived from human DNA. Shared alleles were found at three loci and were often the modal allele in one species but never in both. There was no difference in the mean number of alleles per locus. However, these species exhibited substantially different levels of gene diversity, with chimpanzees monomorphic at two loci. Evidence of...
