Parasite-mediated selection of major histocompatibility complex variability in wild brandt’s voles (Lasiopodomys brandtii) from Inner Mongolia, China

BACKGROUND: Genes of the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) exhibit high levels of variability, which is believed to have arisen through pathogen-mediated selection. We investigated the relationship between parasite load and genetic diversity at selectively neutral, non-coding markers (microsate...
