Major histocompatibility complex class II variation in the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca).

Molecular ecology - 1 Aug 2006

Wan Qiu-Hong, Zhu Liang, Wu Hua, Fang Sheng-Guo

Abstract excerpt

Habitat destruction and human activity have greatly impacted the natural history of the giant panda (Ailuropoda melanoleuca). Although the genetic diversity of neutral markers has been examined in this endangered species, no previous work has examined adaptive molecular polymorphisms in the giant panda. Here, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class II DRB locus was investigated in the giant panda, using...
