Major histocompatibility complex variation associated with juvenile survival and parasite resistance in a large unmanaged ungulate population.

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America - 31 Mar 1998

Paterson S, Wilson K, Pemberton J M

Abstract excerpt

Antagonistic coevolution between hosts and parasites has been proposed as a mechanism maintaining genetic diversity in both host and parasite populations. In particular, the high levels of genetic diversity widely observed at the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) of vertebrate hosts are cons...
