Relationship between food quality and body size of common vole in different habitats

Pest Management Science, Volume 82, Issue 6, Page 5206-5215, June 2026.
The body size of the common vole in crop fields (alfalfa, rape, cereals) is larger than in less‐cultivated habitats (forests, clearings, set‐aside) and is not related to food quality. Abstract BACKGROUND There is a close relationship between habitat, food and demographic parameters of common vole populations.
