Effects of gerbil disturbance on the ecological stoichiometric characteristics and nutrient uptake and utilization of H. ammodendron [PDF]
PeerJRodent activity is an important factor that affects the growth and development of Haloxylon ammodendron. Studying the effect of rodent disturbance on plant ecological stoichiometric ratios helps evaluate the mechanism by which rodent disturbance affects ...

Unsupervised discovery of family specific vocal usage in the Mongolian gerbil [PDF]
eLifeIn nature, animal vocalizations can provide crucial information about identity, including kinship and hierarchy. However, lab-based vocal behavior is typically studied during brief interactions between animals with no prior social relationship, and under

Distributed coding of duration in rodent prefrontal cortex during time reproduction
eLife, 2021 As we interact with the external world, we judge magnitudes from sensory information. The estimation of magnitudes has been characterized in primates, yet it is largely unexplored in nonprimate species.
