Genetic Diversity of <i>IGHM</i> and <i>IGHE</i> in the Leporids Revealed Different Patterns of Diversity in the Two European Rabbit Subspecies (<i>O. cuniculus algirus</i> and <i>O. c. cuniculus</i>)

The European rabbit (<i>Oryctolagus cuniculus</i>) has been an important model for immunological studies but the study of its immunoglobulins (Ig) has been restricted to its unique IgA and IgG. Here, we studied the genetic diversity of IgM and IgE in several species of leporids and perfo...
