Allelic diversity at the Mhc-DQA locus of woodmouse populations (Apodemus sylvaticus) present in the islands and mainland of the northern Mediterranean

Aim: Polymorphism at neutral markers and at MHC loci in rodent populations living on islands is generally low. The main genetic factors that may contribute to a reduced level of genetic variability are genetic drift, reduced gene flow and founder events. We investigated the pattern of polymorphism a...
