At some point -- scientists estimate that between 5 and 8 million years ago -- this species diverged into two distinct lineages, one of which were the hominids, or humanlike species, and the other ultimately evolved into the African great ape species living today.

An analysis of one locus (Fok-223) suggested that a sister relationship exists between S. alpinus and S. malma and the SINE at this locus might have been inserted in a common ancestor of these two species, being fixed in all extant populations examined.

Most of the work in this area is concerned with fundamental differences in the body plans of organisms that diverged from one another many millions of years ago (e.g., ... An alternative approach to the study of morphological diversity is direct genetic analysis of phenotypic differences between closely related species.

Two tiny lemur species discovered in Madagascar; ... Genetic analyses also revealed that this new mouse lemur from Andasibe, a popular tourist site in the eastern rainforest, diverged more than 2 million years ago from other mouse lemur populations in the region. Microcebus lehilahytsara, the newly discovered species,

The two genes have diverged by many amino add substitutions, and have effectively randomized the third bases of homologous codons. By reference to their potential for change, it is shown that certain conserved features must have been maintained by selection pressure.

However, the genomes of suitably diverged species help to predict regulatory elements based on the generally accepted assumption that conserved blocks of genomic sequence are likely to be functional. ... All aligned blocks in the optimal syntenous assembly, we consider 'conserved' between the two species.
