Interspecific hybridization increases MHC class II diversity in two sister species of newts.

Molecular ecology - 1 Feb 2012

Nadachowska-Brzyska Krystyna, Zieliński Piotr, Radwan Jacek, Babik Wiesław

Abstract excerpt

Our understanding of the evolutionary mechanisms generating variation within the highly polymorphic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) genes remains incomplete. Assessing MHC variation across multiple populations, of recent and ancient divergence, may facilitate understanding of geographical and temporal aspects of variation. Here, we applied 454 sequencing to perform a large-scale, comprehensive analysis of...
