Molecular Systematics of Dipodomys elator (Rodentia: Heteromyidae) and its Phylogeographic Implications [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Mammalogy, 2000
Abstract Previous systematic studies, using morphometric, allozymic, and cytogenetic data, have produced conflicting results as to the relationship of Dipodomys elator to other species of kangaroo rats. In this study, phylogenetic relationships of D. elator and other closely related taxa (D. merriami, D. phillipsii, D. ordii, D.

Abundance estimates of Gunnison's prairie dogs compared to the number of active burrows

open access: yesWildlife Society Bulletin, Volume 48, Issue 1, March 2024.
We investigated the relationship between estimates of abundance and active burrow counts for Gunnison's prairie dogs (Cynomys gunnisoni) in the Aubrey Valley, AZ. We found no relationship between any index or esimate of abundance and active burrow counts. Active burrows poorly indexed abundance or density of prairie dogs. Abstract Reliable estimates of

Using archived and biocollection samples towards deciphering the DNA virus diversity associated with rodent species in the families cricetidae and heteromyidae [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
: Rodentia is the most speciose order of mammals, and they are known to harbor a wide range of viruses. Although there has been significant research on zoonotic viruses in rodents, research on the diversity of other viruses has been limited, especially ...

Long‐term occupancy monitoring reveals value of moderate disturbance for an open‐habitat specialist, the Stephens' kangaroo rat (Dipodomys stephensi)

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 3, March 2024.
From 2005–2018, we monitored populations of Stephen's Kangaroo Rat (SKR) on land actively managed for military training. SKR occupancy and colonization were both positively linked to military disturbance, which facilitated favorable habitat conditions.

Adaptation in brain structure and respiratory and olfactory structures across environmental gradients in African and North American muroid rodents

open access: yesIntegrative Zoology, Volume 19, Issue 1, Page 165-181, January 2024.
Based on 174 cranial 3D images, when considering allometric and phylogenetic constraints, muroid rodents showed potentially adaptive responses to aridity in the bulla, cochlea, paraflocculi, and olfactory lobes of the brain and to high elevation in endocranial volume and the respiratory turbinate bone of the nasal capsule. Abstract Morphometric studies

Ecoepidemiology of Chagas Disease in a Biological Corridor in Southeastern Mexico: A Promising Approach to Understand the Risk of Chagas Disease

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology Research, Volume 2024, Issue 1, 2024.
Ecoepidemiology is an emerging field that attempts to explain how biotic, environmental, and even social factors influence the dynamics of infectious diseases. Particularly in vector‐borne diseases, the study under this approach offers us an overview of the pathogens, vectors, and hosts that coexist in a given region and their ecological determinants ...
