Research Abstract |
Primate research Institute, Kyoto University maintains breeding colonies of Japanese(Macaca fuscata) and rhesus(M. mulatta) macaques for biological research. We investigated genetic change of these colonies with more than 30-years history since their establishment by means of microsatellite DNA markers. From early stage to the present, genetic diversity has gradually declined and relatedness has slightly increased, although the colonies still keep genetic diversity comparable to wild troops of Japanese macaques.
