Patterns of evolution of MHC class II genes of crows (Corvus) suggest trans-species polymorphism

A distinguishing characteristic of genes that code for the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is that alleles often share more similarity between, rather than within species. There are two likely mechanisms that can explain this pattern: convergent evolution and trans-species polymorphism (TSP),...
