Toward a Phylogenetic Classification of Primates Based on DNA Evidence Complemented by Fossil Evidence
Morris Goodman,Calvin A. Porter,John Czelusniak,Scott L. Page,Horacio Schneider,Jeheskel Shoshani,Gregg F. Gunnell,Colin P. Groves +7 more
TL;DR: A provisional primate classification based on DNA evidence and the time scale provided by fossils and the model of local molecular clocks has all named taxa represent clades and assigns the same taxonomic rank to those clades of roughly equivalent age.
Journal ArticleDOI
Implications of natural selection in shaping 99.4% nonsynonymous DNA identity between humans and chimpanzees: Enlarging genus Homo
TL;DR: Functional DNA evidence supports two previously offered taxonomic proposals: family Hominidae should include all extant apes; and genus Homo should include three extant species and two subgenera, Homo (Homo) sapiens (humankind), Homo (Pan) troglodytes (common chimpanzee), and Homo ( paniscus (bonobo chimpanzee).
Journal ArticleDOI
Catarrhine phylogeny: noncoding DNA evidence for a diphyletic origin of the mangabeys and for a human-chimpanzee clade.
S.L. Page,Morris Goodman +1 more
TL;DR: Results obtained revealed a faster rate of nucleotide substitutions in the early primate lineage to the anthropoid (platyrrhine/catarrhine) ancestor than from that ancestor to the present.
