Diet-Driven Divergence in Gut Microbiota Variation Between Two Sympatric Gerbil Species. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
ABSTRACT Gut microbiota provide various benefits to their mammalian hosts; however, knowledge regarding interspecific differences in gut microecology remains limited. This study employed 16S rRNA sequencing combined with metagenomic functional prediction (potential functions or functional potential) to conduct a comparative analysis of the gut ...

Lumbosacral plexus of the mongolian gerbil(Meriones unguiculatus Milne-Edwards, 1867)

Bioscience Journal, 2016
The Mongolian gerbil, belonging to the Muridae family, is characterized as an economic asset in the pet market due to its easy management. Current research analyzes and describes the origin of the nerves that make up the lumbosacral plexus in the species,

The genome sequence of the Norway rat, Rattus norvegicus Berkenhout 1769 [version 1; peer review: 2 approved]

Wellcome Open Research, 2021
We present a genome assembly from an individual male Rattus norvegicus (the Norway rat; Chordata; Mammalia; Rodentia; Muridae). The genome sequence is 2.44 gigabases in span. The majority of the assembly is scaffolded into 20 chromosomal pseudomolecules,

Dispersal in Mastomys natalensis mice: use of fine-scale genetic analyses for pest management [PDF]

, 2008
Mastomys natalensis is the major pest rodent in sub-Saharan Africa. In this study, population genetic techniques were used to gain new insights into its dispersal behaviour, a critical parameter in pest management.

Odorants differentiate Australian Rattus with increased complexity in sympatry. In Papers in Honour of Ken Aplin, ed. Julien Louys, Sue O’Connor, and Kristofer M. Helgen

Records of the Australian Museum, 2020
Odorant cues play a critical role in premating isolation among many species. In mammals, they have been most well-studied in rodents, but only in a handful of species.

Spalax denizliensis sp. nov. (Spalacidae, Rodentia) from an early Pleistocene-aged locality in the Denizli Basin (southwestern Turkey) [PDF]

, 2018
It is thought that Spalacidae (Rodentia, Mammalia) originated in Anatolia. They are widespread among Neogene-aged faunas in Anatolia and they are used as zonal fossils because of their strong evolutionary dynamics. Only one fossil species (S.
