Female reed warblers in social pairs with low MHC dissimilarity achieve higher MHC compatibility through random extra-pair matings

L. Halupka, E. A. O'Connor, M. Strandh, H. Sztwiertnia, E. Klimczuk, D. Hasselquist, H. Westerdahl

The paper shows that female reed warblers with extra-pair young have lower MHC-I dissimilarity with their social mate, suggesting random extra-pair matings can increase MHC compatibility.
