Genomic skimming and nanopore sequencing uncover cryptic hybridization in one of world’s most threatened primates

Abstract The Brazilian buffy-tufted-ear marmoset (Callithrix aurita), one of the world’s most endangered primates, is threatened by anthropogenic hybridization with exotic, invasive marmoset species. As there are few genetic data available for C. aurita, we developed a PCR-free protocol with minimal...
