Comparative analysis of optional hunting behavior in Cricetinae hamsters using the data compression approach [PDF]
Frontiers in ZoologyResearch into the hunting behavior in members of the Cricetidae family offers an opportunity to reveal what changes in the predatory behavioral sequences occur when a rodent species shifts from an omnivorous to a predatory lifestyle.

Karyotypic and molecular evidence supports the endemic Tibetan hamsters as a separate divergent lineage of Cricetinae [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2021 The genus status of Urocricetus was defined recently based on morphological and molecular data. Even though the amount of evidence for a separate phylogenetic position of this genus among Cricetinae continues to increase, there is still no consensus on ...

Mitochondrial DNA Diversity of Mesocricetus auratus and Other Cricetinae Species among Cricetidae Family. [PDF]
Biochem Genet, 2022 Unique anatomical and physiological features have made hamster species desirable research models. Comparative genomics and phylogenetic analysis of the hamster family members to clarify their evolution and genetic relationship, can provide a genetic basis for the comprehension of the variable research results obtained using different hamster models ...

Molecular Cytogenetic Characterization of C-Band-Positive Heterochromatin of the Greater Long-Tailed Hamster (Tscherskia triton, Cricetinae) [PDF]
Cytogenetic and Genome Research, 2022 The greater long-tailed hamster (Tscherskia triton, Cricetinae) has a unique karyotype (2n = 28), containing 11 pairs of acrocentric chromosomes with large C-band-positive centromeric heterochromatin blocks. To understand the origin and evolutionary process of heterochromatin in this species, we isolated novel families of chromosome site-specific ...

True Hamsters (Cricetinae) of the Palaearctic Region
True hamsters are a small subfamily (Cricetinae) containing only 19 species which are endemic to the Palaearctic region. Despite such low species richness, general public is well familiar with hamsters, primarily knowing them as pets, experimental laboratory animals and species of conservation concern.
