Article Synopsis
- The study investigates hybridization among baboons to enhance our understanding of primate evolution, focusing on olive and yellow baboon species at the Southwest National Primate Research Center.
- Researchers used full genome data from 881 baboons to analyze genetic ancestry and improve the quality of genetic markers, discovering historical admixture in some supposedly purebred specimens.
- The findings included the creation of updated genetic maps and a set of 1,747 ancestry informative markers, which show strong agreement in global ancestry estimation but revealed phase switch errors influenced by the methods used.
