Abstract excerpt
In all but the most primitive vertebrates, multiple polymorphic genes associated with lymphocyte-mediated immunological surveillance are linked together within genomic regions termed the major histocompatibility complex (MHC). The extensive diversity at many MHC loci provides a valuable source of genetic markers for examining the complex relationships between host genotype and disease resistance or...
