MHC-linked microsatellite LEI0258 variability and population structure of chicken ecotypes in Iran.
A significant genetic structure that is not completely homogeneous among the Iranian chicken populations can be considered as distinct genetic resources. This study highlights the value of using markers such as LEI0258 to investigate the diversity of genes that play dual roles in immunity and production.
