Zusammenfassung:Present study was aimed at comparative analysis of microsatellite polymorphism at DRB, intron 2 locus of Ovine MHC in German Merino sheep. Experiment was conducted in four consecutive lambings comprising flock of adult males, females and offspring's totaling 639 individuals. A total of 16 DRB, microsatellite alleles, ranging between 353-857 bp were detected associated with variable reproductive performances among males and females. Ewes carrying allele 386 bp had a higher (p
