Signatures of Radiation‐Induced Stress and Putative Selection on Immune Targets in Chornobyl Wolves

Molecular Ecology, Volume 35, Issue 9, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Investigating the physiological and evolutionary consequences of contaminant exposure in wild populations is critical for understanding long‐term ecological impacts of anthropogenic change. However, how and why species persist, even thrive, in highly contaminated regions in the absence of humans remains a topic of much debate.

Temporal dynamics of the tick Ixodes ricinus in northern Europe: epidemiological implications

Parasites & Vectors, 2017
Background Tick-borne pathogens pose an increasing threat to human and veterinary health across the northern hemisphere. While the seasonal activity of ticks is largely determined by climatic conditions, host-population dynamics are also likely to affect

Artificial Irrigation Impacts the Seasonal Occurrence of Pathogenic Leptospira in Its Wild Reservoirs in a Mediterranean Environment

Zoonoses and Public Health, Volume 73, Issue 3, Page 218-225, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Human activities play a significant role in the emergence of infectious diseases. We aimed to test whether artificial irrigation affects the occurrence of a zoonotic bacteria sensitive to desiccation, pathogenic Leptospira species (pathoLep), in micromammals inhabiting Mediterranean ecosystems.

Fertility of the post-partum bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) [PDF]

Reproduction, 1983
Analysis of records of a bank vole breeding colony suggests that fertility is high immediately post partum, declines during established lactation and rises after weaning of young. Mating tests with lactating females and females whose young had been removed at birth showed that receptivity is reduced during lactation, although amongst the females which ...

Experimental Cowpox Virus (CPXV) Infections of Bank Voles: Exceptional Clinical Resistance and Variable Reservoir Competence

Viruses, 2017
Cowpox virus (CPXV) is a zoonotic virus and endemic in wild rodent populations in Eurasia. Serological surveys in Europe have reported high prevalence in different vole and mouse species.

The Phenotypic Spectrum of Sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob Disease Cortical Subtype

Annals of Neurology, Volume 99, Issue 4, Page 883-896, April 2026.
Objective The objective of this study was to characterize the phenotypic spectrum of the rare sporadic Creutzfeldt‐Jakob disease cortical subtype (sCJDMM/MV2C) in a large multicentric autopsy cohort. Methods We evaluated clinical histories, biofluid markers, brain diffusion‐weighted (DW)‐magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and electroencephalogram (EEG ...

Use of chlorophacinone in the struggle against the common vole (Microtus arvalis Pallas) and against the muskrat (Ondatra zibethicus L.) [PDF]

, 1974
Use of the anticoagulant rodenticide chlorophacinone was largely developed in France during the past decade. Laboratory and field trials of this compound’s development for control of the common vole (Microtus arvalis) and the introduced muskrat (Ondatra ...

Fire and Snow: Effects of Snowpack Variation and Wildfire on Small Mammal Dynamics in Sub‐Alpine Habitats

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Global warming is increasing the risk of fire and decreasing winter snow cover in montane environments in many parts of the world. Using a long term trapping study in sub‐alpine habitats in the Australian Alps, we show that changes in the fire regime and snow conditions interact with other factors (availability of food and predation by introduced ...

Mapping 3′ transcript ends in the bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) mitochondrial genome with RNA-Seq

BMC Genomics, 2015
BackgroundAlthough posttranscriptional modification of mitochondrial (mt) transcripts plays key roles in completion of the coding information and in the expression of mtDNA-encoded genes, there is little experimental evidence on the polyadenylation ...
