MHC variability, life-traits and parasite diversity of European cyprinid fish
Explore this paper's citation graph
Summary
Fish species, of which populations are exposed to high parasite pressure, in terms of high parasite species richness, maintain a high genetic diversity of the exon 2 of the MHC genes (presenting the peptide binding regions), allowing them to decrease their natural mortality rate.
