Duplication polymorphism at MHC class II DRB1 locus in the wild boar (Sus scrofa).

Immunogenetics - 1 Feb 2009

Barbisan Federica, Savio Claudia, Bertorelle Giorgio, Patarnello Tomaso, Congiu Leonardo

Abstract excerpt

The origin of allelic polymorphism in genes of the major histocompatibility complex represents a central topic in evolutionary genetics as it is probably the most polymorphic region in the nuclear genome of vertebrates. Accordingly, the analyses of genetic variability at these loci provide evidence complementary to the population genetics studies based on neutral loci. In this study, four wild boar populations,...
