Evidence for selection at cytokine loci in a natural population of field voles (Microtus agrestis).

Molecular ecology - 1 Apr 2012

Turner Andrew K, Begon Mike, Jackson Joseph A, Paterson Steve

Abstract excerpt

Individuals in natural populations are frequently exposed to a wide range of pathogens. Given the diverse profile of gene products involved in responses to different types of pathogen, this potentially results in complex pathogen-specific selection pressures acting on a broad spectrum of immune system genes in wild animals. Thus far, studies into the evolution of immune genes in natural populations have focused...
