To what extent do advertisement calls of sympatric cryptic mouse lemurs differ in structure?
The exact number of genes we identified in mouse, rat, chimpanzee, guinea pig, cow, mouse lemur, orangutan and bushbaby differed from that found by Logan et al. [ 17], who failed to identify several of these genes in a previous study, probably due to lower quality genome annotation.
During the ad-libitum period, FFM of LD and SD mouse lemurs did not differ from each other (73±2 vs. 76±1 g, t = −1.0, p = 0.34; Figure 2B).
Gerp's mouse lemur exhibits significant genetic differences from its northern neighbor, Simmons' mouse lemur (M. simmonsi).
As shown in Table 3, human and O. garnettii cytochrome c sequences Table 3 Amino acid differences for alligator and primates Alligator Microcebus coquereli (mouse lemur) tarsius bancanus (Western tarsier) Lemur catta (ring-tailed lemur) Otolemur garnettii (bush-baby) Human and ape AA DIFS→ 0 8 9 9 13 13 both differ from alligator cytochrome c by 13 amino acids.
Jolly's mouse lemur, which is its closest relative and a neighbor to the south, is comparably larger, but differs in tail length and genetics.
Eventually, researchers discovered nearly 100 lemur species, including 18 species of mouse lemur.
The diminutive mouse lemur, with its huge bright eyes and teddy-bear fur, charmed us.
The tiniest living primate, the pygmy mouse lemur of Madagascar, is about the same size.
Yet this may be why the lesser mouse lemur has always remained so deeply lesser.
