Color vision in squirrel monkeys: sex-related differences suggest the mode of inheritance.

G H Jacobs, J Neitz.   

Abstract

Behavioral tests of vision in squirrel monkeys (Saimiri sciureus) reveal that there are widespread individual variations in color vision in this species. The variation has a sex-related component: whereas both trichromatic and dichromatic color vision occurs among female monkeys, males appear exclusively dichromatic. This finding suggests that, unlike humans, squirrel monkeys have only a single photopigment locus on the X chromosome.
