| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to utilize information on major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes into genetic management of the captive breeding colonies of Japanese (Macaca fuscata) and rhesus (M. mulatta) macaques, polymorphisms of microsatellites linked to MHC genes (MHC-MS) were examined. The haplotypes of the eight MHC-MS loci were first determined in Japanese macaques from the results of pedigree analyses. Although no direct association was found between MHC-MS alleles and disease in macaques died of illness, it will be important to genotype MHC-MS loci, as fitness-related markers, to the genetic management of breeding colonies. Finally, polymorphism of MHC-MS was examined in two species of the M. nemestrina group (M. leonina and M. nemestrina). The results were compared with mtDNA phylogeography and suggested that the mtDNA introgression between local populations of leonina and nemestrina was involved in phylogeographic history of the M. nemestrina group.
