Abstract
Genes of major histocompatibility complex play a major role in self recognition, immune response and disease resistance in vertebrates. Here, we describe the development of 22 new highly polymorphic microsatellite markers in both classical and nonclassical major histocompatibility (MH) regions of Atlantic salmon (Salmo salar) and brown trout (Salmo trutta). These newly developed microsatellite loci allow detailed characterization of the diversity, differentiation, level of linkage disequilibrium and haplotype structure that enables to further understand the relationships between MH variability and disease resistance in these ecologically and commercially important species.
