Nicobar long-tailed macaque a defined captive breeding programme were deficient. Nicobar long-tailed macaque The Nicobar long-tailed macaque ("Macaca fascicularis umbrosa", popularly known as the Nicobar monkey) is a subspecies of the crab-eating macaque ("M. fascicularis"), endemic to the Nicobar Islands in the Bay of Bengal. This primate is found on three of the Nicobar Islands—Great Nicobar, Little Nicobar and Katchal—in biome regions consisting of tropical and subtropical moist broadleaf forests. The Nicobar long-tailed macaque has brownish to grey fur, with lighter colouration on its undersides. Its face is pinkish-brown, with white colour spots on its eyelids. Infants are born with a dark natal
Rhesus macaque Michael Katze of University of Washington, Seattle, infected macaques with 1918 and modern influenzas. The DNA microarray showed the macaque genomic response to human influenza on a cellular level in each tissue. Both viruses stimulated innate immune system inflammation, but the 1918 flu stimulated stronger and more persistent inflammation, causing extensive tissue damage, and it did not stimulate the interferon-1 pathway. The DNA response showed a transition from innate to adaptive immune response over seven days. The full sequence and annotation of the macaque genome is available on the Ensembl genome browser.
