Recent nuclear sequence analyses have provided evidence that primates and rodents are more closely related than previously believed (Madsen et al. 2001Citation ; Murphy et al. 2001a,Citation 2001bCitation ). This proposal is difficult to reconcile with morphological insights (Liu et al. 2001Citation ; Novacek 2001Citation ) and is not generally supported by current mitochondrial sequence data (Reyes, Pesole, and Saccone 2000Citation ; Nikaido et al. 2001Citation ; Arnason et al. 2002Citation ; Janke et al. 2002Citation ). Moreover, the supporting data and analyses have been criticized on methodological grounds (Rosenberg and Kumar 2001Citation ). Here we report deletions in two nuclear protein-coding genes that lend independent support . . . [Full Text of this Article]
