Genes of the highly dynamic major histocompatibility complex (MHC) are directly linked to individual fitness and are of high interest in evolutionary ecology and conservation genetics. Gene duplication and positive selection usually lead to high levels of polymorphism in the MHC region, making genotyping of MHC a challenging task. Here, we compare the performance of two methods for MHC class I genotyping...
The phytohaemagglutinin (PHA) skin-swelling test is one of the most widely used methods for cell-mediated immunity measurement in immunoecology. Although several studies have investigated the condition-dependent traits associated with the magnitude of cutaneous inflammatory response to PHA, the results concerning signalling of the responsiveness through ornamental traits are still controversial. This...
