This study assessed the genetic diversity present in immunity-related genes within 3 South American camelids species (Vicugna pacos, Lama glama and Vicugna vicugna) to show whether wild species have greater variability compared to their domesticated relatives. Nuclear DNA was obtained by the extraction of white blood cells by Salting out (Aljanabi & Martinez, 1997) methodology modified by UNMSM's molecular ecology and biodiversity laboratory. Subsequently, the Leucine-rich regions of the Toll-Like Receptor genes and the number 2 exons of the MHC class II were amplified by end-point PCR by primers made specifically for camelids. The amplification products were sequenced obtaining 49 sequences for the TLR2 gene, 54 for the TLR4 gene, and 20 belonging to the DRB1 gene of the Class II MHC and subsequently perform an estimate of the most likely parental haplotypes (PHASE) and thus be able to analyze diversity and genetic differentiation. A total of 40 different haplotypes and 25 polymorphic sites were obtained distributed among the three genes evaluated. The analysis showed slightly high variability of the TLR2 gene within the vicuña population and high variability of the TLR4 gene on llamas. Genetic differentiation was remarkably high between llamas and vicuñas and moderate between alpacas and vicuñas. It is concluded that alpacas, llamas, and vicuña exhibit a similar genetic variability for the LRR regions in the TLR2 and TLR4 genes and for exon 2 of the DRB1 gene. This is the first work that analyses the diversity of immunity-linked genes within the South American camelid´s population.
