Evaluation of Plantings for Wildlife on a Power Line Right of Way in Southern Arkansas [PDF]

open access: yes, 1977
The combination of types of land preparation and species of plants seeded along a power line right-of-way was evaluated in terms of the effects upon wildlife.

The influence of haemoglobin–O2 affinity on aerobic capacity in hypoxia in high‐altitude deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus)

open access: yesThe Journal of Physiology, EarlyView.
Abstract figure legend The influence of haemoglobin–O2 affinity on aerobic capacity in hypoxia has been contentious. Many high‐altitude natives have greater haemoglobin–O2 affinity (lower P50, the O2 pressure at 50% haemoglobin saturation) than their low‐altitude counterparts, but the advantages of this change for aerobic metabolism have often remained

Profiling helper T cell subset gene expression in deer mice

open access: yesBMC Immunology, 2006
Background Deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) are the most common mammals in North America and are reservoirs for several zoonotic agents, including Sin Nombre virus (SNV), the principal etiologic agent of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS) in ...

Darwin and evolution: a set of activities based on the evolution of mammals [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
These activities, prepared for key stage 5 students (ages 16-18) and also suitable for key stage 4 (ages 14-16), show that physical appearance is not necessarily the best way to classify mammals.

The spread of non‐native species

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1197-1234, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Temporal and geographic evidence for evolution of Sin Nombre virus using molecular analyses of viral RNA from Colorado, New Mexico and Montana

open access: yesVirology Journal, 2009
Background All viruses in the family Bunyaviridae possess a tripartite genome, consisting of a small, a medium, and a large RNA segment. Bunyaviruses therefore possess considerable evolutionary potential, attributable to both intramolecular changes and ...

The impacts of biological invasions

open access: yesBiological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1255-1310, June 2026.
ABSTRACT The Anthropocene is characterised by a continuous human‐mediated reshuffling of the distributions of species globally. Both intentional and unintentional introductions have resulted in numerous species being translocated beyond their native ranges, often leading to their establishment and subsequent spread – a process referred to as biological

Cytotoxic Effect of Aeruginosin-865, Resveratrol and Capsaicin on Mouse Fibroblasts and Cells Derived from Fallow Deer

open access: yesNatural Product Communications, 2018
Natural substances offer interesting bioactivity patterns including antiproliferative, antioxidant or cytotoxic effects. However, the safety profile of many of them has not been extensively determined.
