Abstract excerpt
Genetic variation at up to 82 protein loci was studied in 3 cercopithecid primate species, Cercopithecus aethiops, Macaca fascicularis and M. mulatta. In both macaque species, genetic variability was higher than that commonly observed in other mammals. The observed protein variability is closely correlated with that expected under the neutral mutation hypothesis. The results are discussed with respect to the...
