Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background: </h4> Long-term balancing selection (LTBS) can maintain allelic variation at a locus over millions of years and through speciation events. Variants shared between species in the state of identity-by-descent, hereafter “trans-species polymorphisms”, can result from LTBS, often due to host-pathogen interactions. For instance, the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) locus contains TSPs present acro...
