Gene conversion and purifying selection shape nucleotide variation in gibbon L/M opsin genes

BACKGROUND: Routine trichromatic color vision is a characteristic feature of catarrhines (humans, apes and Old World monkeys). This is enabled by L and M opsin genes arrayed on the X chromosome and an autosomal S opsin gene. In non-human catarrhines, genetic variation affecting the color vision phen...
