Summary
Electrophoretic mobilities of homologous erythrocyte enzymes at 21 loci studied in man (Homo sapiens), chimpanzee (Pan troglodytes) and gorilla (Gorilla gorilla) led to estimations of the genetic distances between the three species: If each form is placed at a corner of an isoscele triangle, the distance between the chimpanzee and either of the other two is greater than that between the latter two.
