Abstract

Family studies confirmed a codominant mode of inheritance of albumin phenotypes identified in Macaca mulatta. Preliminary epidemiological and bilirubin binding studies suggest that selection favors the variant allele by reducing risks of hyperbilirubinemia and might be responsible for this otherwise rare polymorphism.

Adult male rhesus monkeys lose weight during the breeding season and regain it during the nonbreeding season. The annual pattern of maximum weight gain just prior to the onset of breeding resembles the seasonal "fattening" seen in squirrel monkeys, but the period of weight gain is less discrete. The
