Characterization of both major histocompatibility complex classes in a wild social mammal: the banded mongoose

2024-12-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> The major histocompatibility complex’s (MHC) role in the vertebrate adaptive immune response and its exceptional polymorphism make it a key target for studying adaptive gene evolution. However, previous studies on carnivore MHC have mostly focused on populations which experienced a severe bottleneck or are of general conservation concern. Hence, sample sizes are often small and generalizations a...
