One more Microtus species with asynaptic sex chromosomes [PDF]

Archives of Biological Sciences, 2018
Arvicoline voles are known as a karyotypically extremely polymorphic group in which the genus Microtus leads with the highest rate of karyotype change. A member of this genus, the European pine vole Microtus subterraneus (de Selys-Longchamps, 1836), is ...

Molecular turn in Yersinia pestis pathogenesis: implications of the gppA frameshift for bacterial survival in human macrophage [PDF]

Emerging Microbes and Infections
Yersinia pestis, the etiological agent of the devastating plague, has caused three pandemics in human history. While known for its fatality, it has long been intriguing that biovar microtus strains are highly attenuated to humans.

Morphotype and multivariate analysis of the occlusal pattern of the first lower molar in European and Asian arvicoline species (Rodentia, Microtus, Alexandromys)

Zoodiversity, 2020
We studied the morphotypic variation of the occlusal pattern of m1 in 13 arvicoline species (genera Microtus and Alexandromys). As a result, 22 m1 morphotypes were identified.

Reproductive Isolation Between Taxonomically Controversial Forms of the Gray Voles (Microtus, Rodentia; Arvicolinae): Cytological Mechanisms and Taxonomical Implications

Frontiers in Genetics, 2021
The formation of hybrid sterility is an important stage of speciation. The voles of the genus Microtus, which is the most speciose genus of rodents, provide a good model for studying the cytological mechanisms of hybrid sterility.
