Abstract excerpt
Temporal samples of Danish brown trout (Salmo trutta) from populations representing varying geographical scales were analysed using eight putatively neutral microsatellite loci and two microsatellite loci embedded in TAP genes (Transporter associated with Antigen Processing). These genes encode molecules that are central to the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) class I restricted antigen presentation and...
