[Transferrin findings in Callithrix jacchus Linné, 1758 (Primates, Platyrrhina)].
This paper deals with the transferrin (Tf) polymorphism in the South American marmoset Callithrix jacchus. The transferrin bands of this species are positioned in the electropherogramme cathodal to the beta1C-globulin (C 3), s. Fig. 1. By means of the combined agarose gel immuno-electrophoresis 7 distinguishable phenotypes have been detected in 166 animals (s. Fig. 2). The formal genetic analysis of 28 matings with 48 youngs (cf. Table 1) leads to the assumption that at least 4 codominant alleles (Tf Cja, Tf Cjb, Tf Cjc, Tf Cjd) are existent at the autosomal Tf-locus in Callithrix jacchus.
