Analysis of Microsatellites DNA Polymorphism in Macaca mulatta and Macaca irus

Objective To analyze the genetic polymorphism in Macaca mulatta and Macaca irus,in order to set up a method of genetic analysis between those two monkey species.Methods The DNA polymorphism was analyzed in 50 individuals of Macaca mulatta and 50 individuals of Macaca irus using 15 PCR-microsatellites DNA loci and the differences of allele numbers between those two species were compared.Results It was able to analyze the DNA polymorphism using 15 polymorphic microsatellite loci between Macaca mulatta and Macaca irus.The allele numbers were more than 7,and there were differences in 11 allele numbers between the two groups.Conclusion It will be feasible in setting up a genetic analysis method by using PCR-analyzed polymorphic microsatellite DNA loci between Macaca mulatta and Macaca irus.
