MHC-DRB3 variation in a free-living population of the European bison, Bison bonasus.

Molecular ecology - 1 Feb 2007

Abstract excerpt

MHC genes play a crucial role in pathogen recognition and are the most polymorphic genes in vertebrates. Loss of variation in these genes in bottlenecked species is thought to put their survival at risk. We examined variation at the MHC II DRB3 locus in the European bison, Bison bonasus, a species that has undergone an extreme bottleneck: the current population originated from only 12 founders. We also tested for...
