Genetic admixture is central to primate evolution. We combined 50 years of field
observations of immigration and group demography with genomic data from~ 9 generations …

Recent studies suggest that closely related species can accumulate substantial genetic and
phenotypic differences despite ongoing gene flow, thus challenging traditional ideas …

Objectives The aim of this study is to assess a new assemblage of papionin fossils (n= 143)
recovered from later Pleistocene sediments in the Middle Awash study area in the Afar Rift of …

Due to wide variation in the presence and degree of expression of a diverse suite of sexually-
selected traits, the tribe Papionini represents an outstanding model for understanding how …

Baboons (genus Papio) are an intriguing study system to investigate complex evolutionary
processes and the evolution of social systems. An increasing number of studies over the last …

Alu retrotransposons account for more than 10% of the human genome, and insertions of
these elements create structural variants segregating in human populations. Such …

Mobile elements (MEs), making∼ 50% of primate genomes, are known to be responsible for
generating inter-and intra-species genomic variations and play important roles in genome …

March Mammal Madness is a science outreach project that, over the course of several
weeks in March, reaches hundreds of thousands of people in the United States every year …

Abstract Background Baboons (genus Papio) and geladas (Theropithecus gelada) are now
generally recognized as close phylogenetic relatives, though morphologically quite distinct …

Short interspersed nuclear elements (SINEs) are small, non‐autonomous and
heterogeneous retrotransposons that are widespread in plants. To explore the amplification …
