The Evolution of Extreme Genetic Variability in a Parasite-Resistance Complex in a Planktonic Crustacean
2024-08-09
Abstract excerpt
Genomic regions that play a role in parasite defense are often found to be highly variable, with the MHC serving as an iconic example. Single nucleotide polymorphisms may represent only a small portion of this variability, with Indel polymorphisms and copy number variation further contributing. In extreme cases, haplotypes may no longer be recognized as homologs. Understanding the evolution of such highly divergen...
