Local Maintenance and Genomic Diversity of Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis Virus in Natural Populations of House Mice in the Czech Republic Over a 24-Year Period. [PDF]
Zoonoses Public HealthABSTRACT Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is a neglected rodent‐borne zoonotic virus primarily infecting house mice. The virus can be highly pathogenic, particularly in immunocompromised individuals and in congenital infections. LCMV is distributed worldwide but shows local clustering, probably due to the highly structured populations of its ...

Stable Isotope Analysis Supports Omnivory in Bank Voles in Apple Orchards
Agriculture, 2022 With only periodic and incomplete studies of its diet over time, all with differing methods and conclusions, the degree of omnivory in the bank vole (Clethrionomys glareolus) is not fully clear. We assessed the trophic niche of the species using isotopic

Effect of Resource Abundance on Woodland Rodents' Demography at Latitudinal Extremes in Europe. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe study aimed to assess the role of food availability on rodent demography in populations characterised by different dynamics, that is multiannual cycles in Northern European populations and mast‐driven outbreaks in Southern European populations. ABSTRACT Climate change effects on primary productivity are especially evident along altitudinal and ...

Geographical and intrapopulation divergence in Clethrionomys glareolus [PDF]
Acta Theriologica, 1984 Examination was made of the frequency of 27 non-metric variants of skull and molar structure in Clethrionomys glareolus (Schreber, 1780), originating from four distant and three nearer situations. It was found that out of 351 calculated coefficients of correlation between all pairs of characters, 108% differed significantly from zero, the proportion ...

The effects of short-term consumption of a Western diet on aerobic exercise performance in bank voles with inherently distinct metabolic rates. [PDF]
Exp PhysiolAbstract Because obesity and related diseases are partly attributed to unrestricted consumption of a high‐fat, high‐sugar Western diet (WD), several studies have examined its adverse effects on health and physical fitness. However, short‐term WD supplementation has received little attention. We asked whether such supplementation can improve the aerobic

Excretion of Vancomycin-Resistant Enterococci by Wild Mammals
Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2002 A survey of fecal samples found enterococcal excretion in 82% of 388 bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus), 92% of 131 woodmice (Apodemus sylvaticus), and 75% of 165 badgers (Meles meles). Vancomycin-resistant enterococci, all Enterococcus faecium of vanA

Quantifying whether different demographic models produce incongruent results on population dynamics of two long-term studied rodent species [PDF]
, 2017 1. Population density (ind/ha) of long-term (>15 years) series of CMR populations, using distinct demographic models designed for both open and closed populations, were analysed for two sympatric species of rodents (Myodes glareolus and ...

A northern glacial refugium for bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus). [PDF]
Proc Natl Acad Sci U S A, 2006 There is controversy and uncertainty on how far north there were glacial refugia for temperate species during the Pleistocene glaciations and in the extent of the contribution of such refugia to present-day populations. We examined these issues using phylogeographic analysis of a European woodland mammal, the bank vole ...
