About a quarter of non-human primate species are threatened by extinction in the near future. Loss of habitat, disease and illegal hunting, especially for the bushmeat trade, are major causes of concern. Here, we develop an identification tool for primate genera using diagnostic nucleotide positions in the epsilon globin gene, apolipoprotein B gene and mitochondrial 12S rRNA. We identified 111 diagnostic nucleotide positions suitable for genotyping by a minisequencing assay in a microarray format. To show the applicability of the microarray, we typed 70 non-human primates representing all primate infraorders. Sixty-five samples were assigned to the correct infraorder, and 32 were assigned to the correct genus (the highest level of taxonomic resolution attempted here). Our results show that it is feasible to distinguish among a high number of primate taxa if the system allows hierarchical assignation of the samples at different taxonomic levels and includes both taxon-specific and redundant positions.
