Paucity of class I MHC gene heterogeneity between individuals in the endangered Hawaiian monk seal population.

Immunogenetics - 1 Apr 2006

Abstract excerpt

The Hawaiian monk seal population has experienced precipitous declines in the last 50 years. In this study, we provide evidence that individuals from remaining endangered population exhibit alarming uniformity in class I major histocompatibility (MHC) genes. The peripheral blood leukocyte-derived mRNA of six captive animals rescued from a stranding incident on the French frigate shoals in the Hawaiian archipelago...
