“…G. elegantulus, too, shares the same AK phenotype, but its AP bands are different from those of all other galagos studied. The Hb of "G. demidovii" has also been described as being slower than that of the other galagos (NUTE et al, 1969), despite its conservative nature in the greater and lesser taxa.…”

Phylogenetic relationships among the galaginae as indicated by erythrocytic allozymes

ABSTRACT. At least four hypotheses regarding the phylogenetic relationships within the Galaginae have been proposed, based on features of karyology, morphology, and behaviour, but these hypotheses share few common elements. Here we investigate erythrocytic allozymes as potential phylogenetic markers, and subject our results to a cladistic analysis. Our study offers little support for the previous models, but suggests instead that the greater galagos and G. alleni form a clade since they share character states for eight of the ten systems examined. The two lesser galago species could not be distinguished using these enzymes, and character states common to them and the allen# crassicaudatus-garnettii clade were found in only four systems. Our resultant cladogram accords well with the rather scant galagine fossil record. The data also show strong concordance with results obtained using highly repeated DNA sequences, which indicate that the galagos form a close-knit genetic group, while the Malagasy lemurids show considerably more inter-taxic variation.

The hemoglobins of fetal and adult Macaca nemestrina were investigated electrophoretically and chromatographically. Standard electrophoretic techniques failed to reveal variation in either fetal or adult hemoglobins beyond that previously attributed to the presence of the duplicate r-chain loci characteristic of this species. However, column chromatography of whole hemolysates on CM-Sephadex or of globin chains on CM-cellulose in 8 M urea revealed that some fetuses had four major hemoglobins and some adults had two major hemoglobin components. All animals examined were of Malaysian origin; the variation described is a consequence of variation in a-chain structure in Malaysian populations of this species, and of the interaction of different a chains with the products of the duplicate r-chain loci.
