Abstract
In Europe, swine represent economically important farm animals and furthermore have become a preferred preclinical large animal model for biomedical studies, transplantation and regenerative medicine research. The need for typing of the swine leukocyte antigen (SLA) is increasing with the expanded use of pigs as models for human diseases and organ‐transplantation experiments and their use in infection studies and for design of veterinary vaccines. In this study, we characterised the SLA class I (SLA‐1, SLA‐2, SLA‐3) and class II (DRB1, DQB1, DQA) genes of 549 farmed pigs representing nine commercial pig lines by low‐resolution (Lr) SLA haplotyping. In total, 50 class I and 37 class II haplotypes were identified in the studied cohort. The most common SLA class I haplotypes Lr‐04.0 (SLA‐1*04XX‐SLA‐3*04XX(04:04)‐SLA‐2*04XX) and Lr‐32.0 (SLA‐1*07XX‐SLA‐3*04XX(04:04)‐SLA‐2*02XX) occurred at frequencies of 11.02 and 8.20% respectively. For SLA class II, the most prevalent haplotypes Lr‐0.15b (DRB1*04XX(04:05/04:06)‐DQB1*02XX(02:02)‐DQA*02XX) and Lr‐0.12 (DRB1*06XX‐DQB1*07XX‐DQA*01XX) occurred at frequencies of 14.37 and 12.46% respectively. Meanwhile, our laboratory has contributed to several vaccine correlation studies (e.g. Porcine Reproductive and Respiratory Syndrome Virus, Classical Swine Fever Virus, Foot‐and‐Mouth Disease Virus and Swine Influenza A Virus) elucidating the immunodominance in the T‐cell response with antigen specificity dependent on certain SLA‐I and SLA‐II haplotypes. Moreover, these SLA–immune response correlations could facilitate tailored vaccine development, as SLA‐I Lr‐04.0 and Lr‐32.0 as well as SLA‐II Lr‐0.15b and Lr‐0.12 are highly abundant haplotypes in European farmed pigs.

Abstract
The Babraham pig is a highly inbred breed first developed in the United Kingdom approximately 50 years ago. Previous reports indicate a very high degree of homozygosity across the genome, including the major histocompatibility complex (MHC) region, but confirmation of homozygosity at the specific MHC loci was lacking. Using both direct sequencing and PCR-based sequence-specific typing, we confirm that Babraham pigs are essentially homozygous at their MHC loci and formalise their MHC haplotype as Hp-55.6. This enhances the utility of the Babraham pig as a useful biomedical model for studies in which controlling for genetic variation is important.

Abstract
The two-nucleotide deletion recently detected in the mannose-binding lectin 2 gene in purebred and crossbred domestic pigs was not found among 68 wild boars representing 4 populations from Europe and Asia. This suggests that the deletion is a result of breeding and/or genetic drift/bottle necks.
