The 5HTTLPR polymorphism in the promoter region of the human serotonin transporter (SLC6A4) gene is known to be associated with various stress-related psychological and psychiatric phenomena. We...
Paternal kinship among adult female rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) (2003)
Der Einfluß der mütterlichen Verwandtschaft auf das soziale Verhalten ist eingehend für viele Primatenarten untersucht worden, es ist jedoch schwierig die Bedeutung der Verwandtenselektion auf die...

Multiple sirehood in free-ranging twin rhesus macaques (Macaca mulatta) (2002)
Bercovitch,Fred B., Widdig,Anja, Berard,John D., Nürnberg,Peter, Kessler,Matt J., Schmidtke,Jörg, ...
Rhesus macaque females regularly copulate with a number of partners, and produce a single offspring per reproductive cycle in over 99% of cases. We used genotyping of 10 STR markers to determine...

A longitudinal analysis of reproductive skew in male rhesus macaques.
Widdig, Anja, Bercovitch, Fred B., Streich, Wolf Jürgen, Sauermann, Ulrike, Nürnberg, Peter, Krawczak, Michael
One of the basic tenets of sexual selection is that male reproductive success should be large in polygynous species. Here, we analysed 6 years of molecular genetic data from a semi-free-ranging...
