Table 2 Z-tests of selection on all sites, peptide binding region (PBR) inferred from [42], and the non-peptide binding region (non-PBR) of the three demographic groups (persistent, expanding and isolated) of Iberian wolves for the three MHC loci (DRB1, DQA1, and DQB1)

From: Alternated selection mechanisms maintain adaptive diversity in different demographic scenarios of a large carnivore
