Contemporary selection on MHC genes in a free‐living ruminant population
… The genetic data used in this study were obtained from previous studies (Dicks et al., 2019,
2021). In these studies, the seven expressed loci (DRB1, DQA1, DQA2, DQA2-like, DQB1, …

Genetic diversity in global populations of the critically endangered addax (Addax nasomaculatus) and its implications for conservation
Threatened species are frequently patchily distributed across small wild populations, ex situ
populations managed with varying levels of intensity and reintroduced populations. Best …

[HTML][HTML] Characterisation of major histocompatibility complex class IIa haplotypes in an island sheep population
The ovine MHC class IIa is known to consist of six to eight loci located in close proximity on
chromosome 20, forming haplotypes that are typically inherited without recombination. Here, …

The genetic legacy of the first successful reintroduction of a mammal to Britain: Founder events and attempted genetic rescue in Scotland's beaver population
Conservation translocations often inherently involve a risk of genetic diversity loss, and thus
loss of adaptive potential, but this risk is rarely quantified or monitored through time. The …
