List of 671 primer pairs for microsatellite candidate loci. Polymorphism was determined with ten unrelated macaques. Chr, Chromosome; Y, amplification; N, no amplification; P, polymorphic; M, monomorphic. These data are also available at our website http://genebank.nibio.go.jp/cgi-bin/qfbase/macMMarker.cgi webcite, and these microsatellite markers are mapped to the rhesus macaque genome database http://genebank.nibio.go.jp/cgi-bin/gbrowse/rheMac2/ webcite. MFA0028-0061 markers are reported as NCBI/UniSTS id: markers and mapping data are 72106, 147912, 8379, 63879, 13743, 19265, 181717, 37796, 74733, 256705, 75673, 10546, 264996, 153124, 73737, 65585, 148897, 9343, 22659, 42001, 46786, 41570, 78383, 13963, 147924, 83050, 46652, 148707, 11528, 89846, 30829, 94606, 94603, and 76519, respectively.

Allele data of 453 polymorphic markers. We checked the mode of inheritance of 453 microsatellite markers in four families (13 males and 14 females) from Malaysian cynomolgus macaques. Of these, 412 markers showed no contradictions concerning Mendelian inheritance.

Chromosomal localization of cynomolgus macaque BAC clones. Chromosome numbers are (A): 11, 12, (B): 17, 13, (C): 7, 15, and (D): 19, 19, macaques (cynomolgus and rhesus) and human, respectively. Green spots indicate hybridization signals of BAC DNA. Background staining (red) is propidium iodide (PI).
