Odour signals major histocompatibility complex genotype in an Old World monkey (2011)
Journal Article
Setchell, J., Vaglio, S., Abbott, K., Moggi-Cecchi, J., Boscaro, F., Pieraccini, G., & Knapp, L. (2011). Odour signals major histocompatibility complex genotype in an Old World monkey. Proceedings of the Royal Society B: Biological Sciences, 278(1703), 274-280. https://doi.org/10.1098/rspb.2010.0571The major histocompatibility complex (MHC) is an extraordinarily diverse cluster of genes that play a key role in the immune system. MHC gene products are also found in various body secretions, leading to the suggestion that MHC genotypes are linked...
