Assessing MHC-B diversity in Silkie chickens.

Poultry science - 1 May 2020

Tarrant Katy J, Lopez Rodrigo, Loper Meghan, Fulton Janet E

Abstract excerpt

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is a highly polymorphic region on chromosome 16, which contains numerous immune response genes, and is known to influence disease susceptibility and resistance in chickens. Variability of MHC-B haplotypes in various well-known and commercially utilized breeds has previously been identified. This study aims to understand MHC-B diversity in the Silkie breed using a...
