The genetic and antigenic basis of tumour transplantation.

J. Path. Bact., 44, 691-97; 47, 231-52, 1937, 1938.

Gorer made the initial discoveries which formed the basis of transplantation genetics. He studied mouse blood groups and described an antigen in erythrocytes (antigen II). His studies established the laws of transplantation immunity. See also his later paper in Proc. roy. Soc. B, 1948, 135, 499-505.
