Embryonic Development of the Deer Mouse, Peromyscus maniculatus. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2016 Deer mice, or Peromyscus maniculatus, are an emerging model system for use in biomedicine. P. maniculatus are similar in appearance to laboratory mice, Mus musculus, but are more closely related to hamsters than to Mus. The laboratory strains of Peromyscus have captured a high degree of the genetic variability observed in wild populations, and are more

Sin nombre virus and rodent species diversity: a test of the dilution and amplification hypotheses. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2009 BACKGROUND:Species diversity is proposed to greatly impact the prevalence of pathogens. Two predominant hypotheses, the "Dilution Effect" and the "Amplification Effect", predict divergent outcomes with respect to the impact of species diversity.

Development and Characterization of a Sin Nombre Virus Transmission Model in Peromyscus maniculatus
Viruses, 2019 In North America, Sin Nombre virus (SNV) is the main cause of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HCPS), a severe respiratory disease with a fatality rate of 35⁻40%. SNV is a zoonotic pathogen carried by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), and few
