“…It is known that 9 of the latter systems-D1S207, D2S141, D6S311, D7S503, D8S1106, D11S925, D16S420, D17S791, and D18S536-show variation in Barbary macaques (Lathuillière et al, 2001;von Segesser, 1999;von Segesser et al, 1999) and that the 3 remaining systems-D2S305, D3S1279, and D4S243-show polymorphism in other Old World monkeys (Nair et al, 2000;von Segesser, personal communication) and were successfully amplified in M. sylvanus. Most of the microsatellite sequences we examined consisted of CA repeats, but the 3 markers D4S243, D8S1106, and D18S536 contained GATA tetranucleotide repeats.…”
