Marked chromosomes associations in catarrhine monkeys, with a note on chromosome associations in other primate groups

Abstract

In metaphase figures, obtained from cultures of whole blood, associations of the marked chromosomes were found in species of the following genera: Macaca, Cercocebus, Cercopithecus and Symphalangus. The different types of these associations are discussed. A note is given on chromosome associations found in some species of Prosimii and Platyrrhinae.
