Puumala Virus in Bank Voles, Lithuania
Little is known about the presence of human pathogenic Puumala virus (PUUV) in Lithuania. We detected this virus in bank voles (Myodes glareolus) in a region of this country in which previously PUUV-seropositive humans were identified. Our results are consistent with heterogeneous distributions of PUUV in other countries in Europe.

Genomic signatures of climate adaptation in bank voles
AbstractEvidence for divergent selection and adaptive variation across the landscape can provide insight into a species' ability to adapt to different environments. However, despite recent advances in genomics, it remains difficult to detect the footprints of climate‐mediated selection in natural populations. Here, we analysed ddRAD sequencing data (21,

Small mammals feeding on hypogeous fungi [PDF]
The spores stay viable after passing through the animal gut, and in some cases their ability to germinate and form mycorrhiza is enhanced after leaving the intestine.

CandidatusNeoehrlichia mikurensis in Bank Voles, France
To further assess the geographic occurrence, possible vectors, and prevalence of Candidatus Neoehrlichia mikurensis, we analyzed spleen tissues from 276 voles trapped close to human settlements in France; 5 were infected with the organism. Sequencing showed the isolates carried the same genotype as the bacteria that caused disease in humans and animals

Biochemical Characterization of Prion Strains in Bank Voles [PDF]
Prions exist as different strains exhibiting distinct disease phenotypes. Currently, the identification of prion strains is still based on biological strain typing in rodents. However, it has been shown that prion strains may be associated with distinct PrPSc biochemical types.

HANTAVIRUS ANTIBODY OCCURRENCE IN BANK VOLES (CLETHRIONOMYS GLAREOLUS) DURING A VOLE POPULATION CYCLE [PDF]
Puumala virus, genus Hantavirus, is the etiologic agent of nephropathia epidemica, a mild form of hemorrhagic fever with renal syndrome. The bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) is the natural reservoir species of this hantavirus. We initiated sampling of bank voles at sites of recently identified human nephropathia epidemica cases and paired control ...

Exceptional Clinical Resistance and Variable Reservoir Competence [PDF]
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.

Exchange Rate Regimes, Foreign Exchange Volatility and Export Performance in Central and Eastern Europe: Just Another Blur Project? [PDF]
This paper attempts to analyze the direct impact of exchange rate volatility on the export performance of ten Central and Eastern European transition economies as well as its indirect impact via changes in exchange rate regimes.

Delayed implantation in lactating bank voles, Clethrionomys glareolus [PDF]
The time of blastocyst implantation in lactating and non-lactating female bank voles was studied. In primiparous females implantation started 4 days and 9-11 h after mating. A delayed implantation of at least 1 1/2 days was found in lactating, multiparous females when compared to non-lactating, multiparous and primiparous females.
