DIVERSIFICATION OF SULAWESI MACAQUE MONKEYS: DECOUPLED EVOLUTION OF MITOCHONDRIAL AND AUTOSOMAL DNA

Abstract

In macaque monkeys, females are philopatric and males are obligate dispersers. This social system is expected to differently affect evolution of genetic elements depending on their mode of inheritance. Because of this, the geographic structure of molecular variation may differ considerably in mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) and in autosomal DNA (aDNA) in the same individuals, even though these genomes are partially co-inherited. On the Indonesian …
