Mitochondrial Genome Sequences Effectively Reveal the Phylogeny of Hylobates Gibbons
BACKGROUND Uniquely among hominoids, gibbons exist as multiple geographically contiguous taxa exhibiting distinctive behavioral, morphological, and karyotypic characteristics. However, our understanding of the evolutionary relationships of the various gibbons, especially among Hylobates species, is still limited because previous studies used limited taxon sampling or short mitochondrial DNA (mt...
متن کاملSpecies Discrimination of Male Song in Gibbons
Acoustic analyses and field playback experiments were conducted to investigate interspecific song differences and discrimination in male gibbons. Songs were recorded and analyzed from males of three populations: agile gibbons (Hylobates agilis) in West Kalimantan and South Sumatra and Miiller’s gibbons (Hylobates muelleri) in East Kalimantan. Male songs from each of the three populations were p...
متن کاملSiamangs (Hylobates syndactylus) and white-cheeked gibbons (Hylobates leucogenys) show few behavioral differences related to zoo attendance.
The effect of visitors on behavior and welfare of nonhuman animals in the zoo has been an active research topic during the last few decades. Although research has variously shown negative or positive impacts of zoo visitors on animals in captivity, previous primate research at Disney's Animal Kingdom suggests the importance of visual barriers in allowing animals to cope with large crowds. Exami...
متن کاملCross-species amplification of human microsatellite markers using noninvasive samples from white-handed gibbons (Hylobates lar).
Analysis of the population genetic structure and reproductive strategies of various primate species has been facilitated by cross-species amplification (i.e., the use of microsatellite markers developed in one species for analysis of another). In this study we screened 47 human-derived markers to assess their utility in the white-handed gibbon (Hylobates lar). Only eight produced accurate, reli...
متن کاملModeling the Ecological and Phenological Predictors of Fruit Consumption by Gibbons (Hylobates albibarbis)
Understanding the ecological interactions between plant reproductive strategies and frugivore feeding behavior can offer insight into the maintenance of tropical forest biodiversity. We examined the role of plant ecological and phenological characteristics in influencing fruit consumption by the White-bearded gibbon (Hylobates albibarbis) in Gunung Palung National Park, Indonesian Borneo. Gibbo...
