猕猴属(猕猴科：罂粟属)是最成功的灵长类辐射之一。尽管之前对形态学和线粒体DNA分析进行了研究，但关于猕猴进化细节的一些问题仍然没有解决。ALU元素是一类非自治的逆转录病毒，属于灵长类物种特有的短的穿插的元素。由于逆转录子插入显示的同源性很低，而且由于祖先状态(缺失正弦)是已知的，Alu元素是有用的遗传标记，已被用于分析灵长类系统发育关系和人类群体遗传关系。利用聚合酶链式反应显示方法，从10种猕猴中鉴定出298个新的Alu插入。与已报道的60个基因座一起，共有358个基因座用于猕猴属的系统发育关系的推断。关于猕猴进化的早期悬而未决的问题，我们的树的拓扑结构表明：1)猕猴属包含四个单系物种组；2)在亚洲猕猴中，Silenus组首先分化，而Sinica和Fascularis组的成员具有共同的祖先；3)Macaca arctoide被归入Sinica组。我们的研究结果为猕猴属提供了一个强有力的分子系统学，并比以前的研究提供了更有力的统计支持。本研究还表明，基于正弦的方法在灵长类系统发育研究中是一个强有力的工具，可以用来成功地解决从序数水平到一个属内密切相关物种的尺度上的类群之间的进化关系。
Genus Macaca (Cercopithecidae: Papionini) is one of the most successful primate radiations. Despite previous studies on morphology and mitochondrial DNA analysis, a number of issues regarding the details of macaque evolution remain unsolved. Alu elements are a class of non-autonomous retroposons belonging to short interspersed elements that are specific to the primate lineage. Because retroposon insertions show very little homoplasy, and because the ancestral state (absence of the SINE) is known, Alu elements are useful genetic markers and have been utilized for analyzing primate phylogenentic relationships and human population genetic relationships. Using PCR display methodology, 298 new Alu insertions have been identified from ten species of macaques. Together with 60 loci reported previously, a total of 358 loci are used to infer the phylogenetic relationships of genus Macaca. With regard to earlier unresolved issues on the macaque evolution, the topology of our tree suggests that: 1) genus Macaca contains four monophyletic species groups; 2) within the Asian macaques, the silenus group diverged first, and members of the sinica and fascicularis groups share a common ancestor; 3) Macaca arctoides are classified in the sinica group. Our results provide a robust molecular phylogeny for genus Macaca with stronger statistical support than previous studies. The present study also illustrates that SINE-based approaches are a powerful tool in primate phylogenetic studies and can be used to successfully resolve evolutionary relationships between taxa at scales from the ordinal level to closely related species within one genus.
