Natural selection of the major histocompatibility complex (Mhc) in Hawaiian honeycreepers (Drepanidinae).

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2004

Abstract excerpt

The native Hawaiian honeycreepers represent a classic example of adaptive radiation and speciation, but currently face one the highest extinction rates in the world. Although multiple factors have likely influenced the fate of Hawaiian birds, the relatively recent introduction of avian malaria is thought to be a major factor limiting honeycreeper distribution and abundance. We have initiated genetic analyses of...
