Abstract excerpt

We sequenced exon 2 of the MHC class II B gene in Atlantic salmon from the Baltic Sea and identified 17 different exon 2 alleles among 22 different restriction fragment length polymorphism haplotypes. The sequences differed at between 1 and 34 bases. Two different tests were used to estimate the importance of recombination in the generation of new alleles. Recombination events appear to have occurred between...
