Sperm morphology in two house mouse subspecies: do wild-derived strains and wild mice tell the same story? [PDF]
Being subject to intense post-copulatory selection, sperm size is a principal determining component of male fitness. Although previous studies have presented comparative sperm size data at higher taxonomic levels, information on the evolution of sperm ...

Abstract Rodent models of epilepsy remain the cornerstone of research into the mechanisms underlying genetic epilepsy. Reproducibility of experiments using these rodent models, occurring across a diversity of laboratories and commercial vendors, remains an issue impacting the cost‐effectiveness and scientific rigor of the studies performed.

Rift Valley Fever Virus Is Lethal in Different Inbred Mouse Strains Independent of Sex
Rift Valley fever virus (RVFV) is a zoonotic arbovirus affecting humans and livestock in Africa and the Arabian Peninsula. The majority of human cases are mild and self-limiting; however, severe cases can result in hepatitis, encephalitis, or hemorrhagic

Placentophagia in Nonpregnant Nulliparous Mice: A Genetic Investigation [PDF]
The genetic influence on the response of nonpregnant nulliparous mice to foster placenta was investigated. Two highly inbred strains (BALB/cBy and C57BL/6By), their F1 hybrids, a backcross generation, and seven recombinant-inbred strains derived from the
