In man the structural genes for the HLA antigens are encoded on the short arm of chromosome 6 and constitute a linkage group with structural genes of the complement components Bf, C2, and C4 (Allen 1974, Fu et al. 1974, Rittner et al. 1975). The gene products of the whole group are characterized by
The complement component factor B in chickens exhibits a genetic polymorphism with three common phenotypes, F, F/S, and S. These phenotypes segregate in flocks of chickens homozygous for the MHC (B complex) of the chicken. Furthermore, a genetic analysis has shown that the described factor B polymor
