Glareosin: a novel sexually dimorphic urinary lipocalin in the bank vole, Myodes glareolus [PDF]
Open Biology, 2017 The urine of bank voles (Myodes glareolus) contains substantial quantities of a small protein that is expressed at much higher levels in males than females, and at higher levels in males in the breeding season.

Experimental Mycobacterium microti Infection in Bank Voles (Myodes glareolus) [PDF]
Microorganisms, 2022 Voles are maintenance hosts of Mycobacterium microti. In line with the goal to eradicate tuberculosis (TB) in livestock, the role of this mycobacteria needs to be assessed since it might interfere with current M. bovis/M.

Interrelation of the spatial and genetic structure of tick‐borne encephalitis virus, its reservoir host (Myodes glareolus), and its vector (Ixodes ricinus) in a natural focus area [PDF]
Ecology and EvolutionTick‐borne encephalitis (TBE) virus is considered the medically most important arthropod‐borne virus in Europe. Although TBE is endemic throughout central Europe, ticks and rodents determine its maintenance in small, difficult‐to‐assess, natural foci. We

Reduced helminth parasitism in the introduced bank vole (Myodes glareolus): More parasites lost than gained [PDF]
International Journal for Parasitology: Parasites and Wildlife, 2016 Introduced species are often less parasitised compared to their native counterparts and to ecologically similar hosts in the new environment. Reduced parasitism may come about due to both the loss of original parasites and low acquisition of novel ...
