Mhc class II diversity and balancing selection in greater prairie-chickens.

Genetica - 1 Feb 2010

Eimes John A, Bollmer Jennifer L, Dunn Peter O, Whittingham Linda A, Wimpee Charles

Abstract excerpt

The major histocompatibility complex (Mhc) of domestic chickens has been characterized as small and relatively simple compared with that of mammals. However, there is growing evidence that the Mhc of many bird lineages may be more complex, even within the Order Galliformes. In this study, we meas...
