The common or white-tufted-ear marmoset Callithrix jacchus is a New World primate that inhabits the coastal rainforests of eastern Brazil. Its genome sequence will be useful for comparative genomics studies of primates. The C. jacchus genome is distributed over 22 pairs of autosomes and two sex chromosomes.
