Clinal variation in MHC diversity with temperature: evidence for the role of host-pathogen interaction on local adaptation in Atlantic salmon.

Evolution; international journal of organic evolution - 1 Sept 2007

Dionne Mélanie, Miller Kristina M, Dodson Julian J, Caron François, Bernatchez Louis

Abstract excerpt

In vertebrates, variability at genes of the Major Histocompatibility Complex (MHC) represents an important adaptation for pathogen resistance, whereby high allelic diversity confers resistance to a greater number of pathogens. Pathogens can maintain diversifying selection pressure on their host's...
