Structure and evolution of the squamate major histocompatibility complex as revealed by two Anolis lizard genomes

Structure and evolution of the squamate major histocompatibility complex as revealed by two Anolis lizard genomes

The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is an important genomic region for adaptive immunity and has long been studied in ecological and evolutionary contexts, such as disease resistance and mate and kin selection. The MHC has been investigated extensively in mammals and birds but far less so in...
