Locations of qPCR-assayed genes on a schematic of the rhesus macaque msrY. Arrows indicate the orientation of protein coding genes. Black arrows indicate singleton loci sequenced in this study, coloured arrows indicate AG loci sequenced in this study, and gray arrows indicate loci not sequenced in this study. Labeled loci indicate genes whose copy numbers were assayed using relative qPCR; SRY, TSPY1, and XKRY were used as reference genes while the others as well as XKRY are experimental genes. The blue unlabeled loci correspond to TSPY2-5, which was not assayed by qPCR. The multiple arrows for DAZ1 and DAZ2 illustrate the exon duplicates within each gene. The two stem-loop structures on the right illustrate palindromes (i.e. inverted repeats) in the ampliconic region and the purple ellipse on the far right illustrates the centromere
