Abstract excerpt
Certain haplotypes of the major histocompatibility (B) complex are strongly associated with resistance or susceptibility to several infectious diseases in Leghorn chickens. Identification of chicken haplotypes based on the nucleotide sequence of B complex loci could provide more precise identification of haplotypes than traditional serological methods. We report the development and application of polymerase chain...
