Opposites attract: MHC-associated mate choice in a polygynous primate.

Journal of evolutionary biology - 1 Jan 2010

Setchell J M, Charpentier M J E, Abbott K M, Wickings E J, Knapp L A

Abstract excerpt

We investigated reproduction in a semi-free-ranging population of a polygynous primate, the mandrill, in relation to genetic relatedness and male genetic characteristics, using neutral microsatellite and major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genotyping. We compared genetic dissimilarity to the mother and genetic characteristics of the sire with all other potential sires present at the conception of each...
