Abstract Background The evolutionary distance between human and macaque is particularly attractive for investigating local variation in neutral substitution rates because substitutions can be inferred more reliably than in comparisons with rodents and are less influenced by the effects of current and ancient diversity than in comparisons with closer primates. Here we investigate the humanmacaque neutral substitution rate as a function of a number of genomic .
