Major histocompatibility (MH) class II B gene polymorphism influences disease resistance of common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.)

2009-03-01

Abstract excerpt

Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are crucial elements of adaptive immunity. High polymorphism renders the MHC genes highly suitable for studies on association with disease resistance. In common carp (Cyprinus carpio L.), there are two paralogous groups of MH class II B genes, Cyca-DAB1-like and Cyca-DAB3-like genes. The Cyca-DAB1-like genes especially, could be linked to high polymorphism and in...
