Variations in Ixodes ricinus Density and Borrelia Infections Associated with Cattle Introduced into a Woodland in The Netherlands [PDF]
The effect of introduced large herbivores on the abundance of Ixodes ricinus ticks and their Borrelia infections was studied in a natural woodland in The Netherlands. Oak and pine plots, either ungrazed or grazed by cattle, were selected.

(1) Background: Bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) and Apodemus mice are of exceptional importance as prey for predators in temperate mixed forests. We hypothesized that overall prey availability would increase linearly with prey frequency, and that ...

Diet shift in bank voles induced by competition from grey‐sided voles? [PDF]
AbstractGrey‐sided voles (Myodes rufocanus) and bank voles (Myodes glareolus) co‐exist in boreal forests in northern Scandinavia. Previous studies suggest that the 2 species interact interspecifically, the grey‐sided vole being the dominant species.

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 ...

Molecular Detection and Characterization of the First Cowpox Virus Isolate Derived from a Bank Vole
Cowpox virus (CPXV) is a zoonotic orthopoxvirus (OPV) that infects a wide range of mammals. CPXV-specific DNA and antibodies were detected in different vole species, such as common voles (Microtus arvalis) and bank voles (Myodes glareolus).
