Contemporary selection on MHC genes in a free‐living ruminant population
Genes within the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are the most variable identified in vertebrates. Pathogen‐mediated selection is believed to be the main force maintaining MHC diversity. However, relatively few studies have demonstrated contemporary selection on MHC genes. Here, we examine ass...
