MHC genes and parasitism in Carassius gibelio, a diploid-triploid fish species with dual reproduction strategies.

BMC evolutionary biology - 14 Jun 2013

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The gibel carp is a fish species with dual reproduction modes, gynogenesis and sexual reproduction, coexisting in mixed diploid-polyploid populations. Following the Red Queen (RQ) assumption, asexual organisms are, due to their low genetic diversity, targets for parasite adaptation. Because MHC polymorphism is maintained by selection from parasites and sexual selection, MHC genes are considered as a...
