## Abstract Inferences about how the complex somatosensory systems of anthropoid primates evolved are based on comparative studies of such systems in extant mammals. Experimental studies of members of the major clades of extant mammals suggest that somatosensory cortex of early mammals consisted of

## Abstract Female dominance and feeding priority are considered unique behavioral strategies in many Malagasy lemuriformes, particularly __Lemur catta__. Two hypotheses have been introduced to explain these behavior patterns: 1) females are agonistically dominant over males to mitigate female–male

In mammals, male sex determination, as well as spermatogenesis, is controlled by genes on the Y chromosome. Evolutionary comparisons may be used to detect and test candidate genes for these functions, under the hypothesis that the rapid evolution of the mammalian Y chromosome causes it to contain fe
