Abstract excerpt
The major histocompatibility (B) complex of a distinct commercial pure White Leghorn chicken line was characterized using serological, biochemical and restriction fragment length polymorphism (RFLP) typing. Line B chickens displayed a high recombination frequency within the B complex. Three recombinant haplotypes were identified. The influence of these haplotypes was determined in relation to the haplotypes B19...
