Differences in ultrasonic vocalizations between wild and laboratory California mice (Peromyscus californicus). [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2010 BACKGROUND: Ultrasonic vocalizations (USVs) emitted by muroid rodents, including laboratory mice and rats, are used as phenotypic markers in behavioral assays and biomedical research. Interpretation of these USVs depends on understanding the significance

Whole mitochondrial genomes provide increased resolution and indicate paraphyly in deer mice
BMC Zoology, 2017 Background Recent phylogenies of deer mice, genus Peromyscus, have relied heavily on mitochondrial markers. These markers provided resolution at and below the level of species groups, but relationships among species groups and Peromyscus affiliated ...

Mammalian Species, 1998 Almost nothing is known of P. caniceps (Avise et al., 1974; Hooper, 1968). According to Burt (1932), it is similar in some respects and undoubtedly belongs to the same group as P.pseudocrinitus; however, P. caniceps appears to be a distinct species. It differs radically in coloration from P.

Laboratory Life Histories of Peromyscus eremicus and Peromyscus interparietalis
Journal of Mammalogy, 1968 Various aspects of reproduction in Peromyscus eremicus and P. interparietalis were studied. Mice of the P. guardia group are abundant on rocky beaches of the islands they inhabit but occur sparsely in other habitats. Birth of young of P. eremicus and of P. interparietalis occurred throughout the year in the laboratory.

Growth of human breast cancers in Peromyscus
Disease Models & Mechanisms, 2018 Modeling breast cancer in general and hormone-sensitive breast cancer, in particular in mice, has several limitations. These are related to the inbred nature of laboratory mice, and do not allow adequate appreciation of the contribution of the host's ...

Differential gene expression in relation to mating system in Peromyscine rodents
Ecology and Evolution, 2019 Behaviors that increase an individual's exposure to pathogens are expected to have important effects on immunoactivity. Because sexual reproduction typically requires close contact among conspecifics, mating systems provide an ideal opportunity to study ...

A Taxonomic Odyssey: An annotated checklist of Peromyscus (Cricetidae, Rodentia) in Honduras [PDF]
ZooKeysDeer mice, Peromyscus, thrive in diverse environments and altitudes across North and Central America. The number of extant species continues to be debated with species counts ranging from 53 to 83. This study represents the first comprehensive historical

Characterization of a male reproductive transcriptome for Peromyscus eremicus (Cactus mouse) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2016 Rodents of the genus Peromyscus have become increasingly utilized models for investigations into adaptive biology. This genus is particularly powerful for research linking genetics with adaptive physiology or behaviors, and recent research has ...

The genome of Peromyscus leucopus, natural host for Lyme disease and other emerging infections
Science Advances, 2019 The genome of the white-footed deer mouse will accelerate our understanding of several tick-borne infections. The rodent Peromyscus leucopus is the natural reservoir of several tick-borne infections, including Lyme disease.
