Organic photonic synaptic transistors for bionic vision: From spectral engineering to flexible intelligent perception

FlexMat, EarlyView.
Different wavelength photonic synapses are used for biomimetic visual applications. Abstract Bionic intelligent visual perception systems have significant application prospects in fields such as autonomous driving and robotics, medical imaging and auxiliary diagnosis, security and monitoring.

Ocozocoautla de Espinosa Virus and Hemorrhagic Fever, Mexico

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
Arenavirus RNA was isolated from Mexican deer mice (Peromyscus mexicanus) captured near the site of a 1967 epidemic of hemorrhagic fever in southern Mexico.

Effects of off‐highway vehicle activity on Arizona wildlife: a systematic literature review

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
The published literature indicates that off‐highway vehicles (OHVs) predominantly negatively affect native Arizona amphibians, mammals, and reptiles, while effects of OHVs on native Arizona birds are mostly unknown or neutral. Abstract Off‐highway vehicle (OHV) recreation has dramatically increased in Arizona, USA, prompting concerns about potential ...

Experimental Andes virus infection in deer mice: characteristics of infection and clearance in a heterologous rodent host. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2013
New World hantaviruses can cause hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome with high mortality in humans. Distinct virus species are hosted by specific rodent reservoirs, which also serve as the vectors.

Mapping landowners' willingness to allow recreational deer harvest on their property for managing chronic wasting disease

The Journal of Wildlife Management, EarlyView.
We demonstrate an approach for mapping the probability of landowners' willingness to allow wildlife management actions on their property using chronic wasting disease as a case study. Larger property sizes were associated with higher landowner willingness. We mapped predictions across the contiguous United States at the census tract level.

How much effort is required to accurately describe the complex ecology of a rodent‐borne viral disease?

Ecosphere, 2016
We use data collected on 18, 1‐ha live trapping grids monitored from 1994 through 2005 and on five of those grids through 2013 in the mesic northwestern United States to illustrate the complexity of the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus)/Sin Nombre ...

Heterospecific competitors and seasonality can affect host physiology and behavior: key factors in disease transmission

Ecosphere, 2021
Ecological and environmental factors can influence the transmission of infectious diseases. They can accomplish this via effects on host susceptibility and exposure to infection, which are governed by host physiology and behavior, respectively. To better

Voles Damage Seedlings, But Do Deer Mice and House Mice? [PDF]

Proceedings of the Vertebrate Pest Conference, 2012
Author(s): Witmer, Gary; Moulton, Rachael; Snow, Nathan; Swartz, Jenna | Abstract: While it is known that voles will damage seedlings, we do not know the extent to which deer mice and house mice damage seedlings. Knowing this information can assist resource managers in better targeting problem species and implementing appropriate management actions. We

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

People and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

Amphetamine-induced sensitization and spontaneous stereotypy in deer mice [PDF]

Pharmacology Biochemistry and Behavior, 2009
Stereotyped behavior is commonly observed in neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g., autism, intellectual and developmental disability) and in a wide variety of animal species maintained in restricted environments. Stereotyped behavior can also be induced by psychostimulants, an effect potentiated by repeated intermittent exposure to these drugs ...
