Genetics of adult body mass and maintenance of adult body mass in captive baboons (Papio hamadryas subspecies).

American journal of primatology - 1 Jan 1997

Jaquish C E, Dyer T, Williams-Blangero S, Dyke B, Leland M, Blangero J

Abstract excerpt

Adult body mass and changes in mass during an individual's life are important indicators of general health and reproductive fitness. Therefore, characterization of the factors that influence normal variation in body mass has important implications for colony management and husbandry. The main objective of this study was to quantify the genetic contribution to adult body mass and its maintenance in baboons....
