Abstract
Five alloimmune blood typing reagents have been produced which define five new blood group systems in rhesus monkeys. Each of the five independent blood group loci is comprised of a detectable allele and a null allele. Using these new reagents and those previously described, we can potentially identify close to a million phenotypes in rhesus monkeys.
