Marmoset, Callithrix jacchus

VN neurogenesis in Common Marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) was detected in the late embryo from about E70 (gestation stage 19) (Phillips, 1976). At birth, these monkeys do show a distinct VNO, but one with...

Sixteen male and sixteen female common marmosets (Callithrix jacchus) weighing 280-380 g had previously been trained to perform a task of visually guided reaching which is sensitive to motivational, attentional and motor disturbances (d Mello et al., 1985). In this task, animals learn to retrieve small items of preferred food from a moving conveyor belt positioned in front of their home cage and performance is gauged by the number of attempts that are made and their effectiveness in retrieving rewards.
