Abstract excerpt
Cross-species amplification of 72 SSR (predominantly tetranucleotide) loci from the DNA of six rhesus macaques of diverse regional origins was conducted using human primers for the polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Thirteen of these primer pairs, which consistently and unambiguously amplified polymorphic fragments from these six samples and which exhibited Mendelian properties, were also used to amplify SSR loci...
