| pubmed-article:10984838 | pubmed:abstractText | We determined 5 sequences of Japanese macaque ABO blood group gene exon 7 (ca. 0.5 kb) and 2 sequences for exon 5 and intron 6 (ca. 1.7 kb). We compared those data with published sequences of other Old World monkey species, and the results suggest that alleles A and B were polymorphic in the ancestral species of macaques, and that B type allele evolved independently in macaque and baboon lineages. | lld:pubmed |
