mtDNA diversity in rhesus monkeys reveals overestimates of divergence time and paraphyly with neighboring species.

Molecular biology and evolution - 1 Mar 1993

Melnick D J, Hoelzer G A, Absher R, Ashley M V

Abstract excerpt

Reconstructions of the human-African great ape phylogeny by using mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) have been subject to considerable debate. One confounding factor may be the lack of data on intraspecific variation. To test this hypothesis, we examined the effect of intraspecific mtDNA diversity on the phylogenetic reconstruction of another Plio-Pleistocene radiation of higher primates, the fascicularis group of macaque...
