Jackson’s assistants Robbie Stockdale and analyst Aaron Dagger have also been axed.
A club statement read: “We would like to thank Mark, Robbie and Aaron for their efforts during their time at Stadium MK.
“Everyone at MK Dons wishes them every success in the future.
“Chairman Pete Winkelman will meet with the media on Thursday to address the club’s relegation to Sky Bet League Two and to discuss next steps for MK Dons.”
Winkleman is under pressure from supporters that raged at him in the car park after relegation.
