Seasonal changes in plant–animal interactions, such as seed dispersal and predation, remain poorly understood in temperate ecosystems. We examined seed removal of three woody species (Acer saccharum, Tsuga canadensis, and Lonicera spp.) by small mammals (

Shifting Balancing Selection Underlies an Inversion Cline in Eurasian Blackcap
We investigated what factor contributes to a cline of a chromosomal inversion of the Eurasian blackcap, which differs from typical inversion clines maintained by divergent selection. Using a simulation‐based machine learning approach, we found that the inversion is under negative frequency‐dependent selection, and the optimal frequency is shifted ...

Rapid Field Immunoassay for Detecting Antibody to Sin Nombre Virus in Deer Mice
We developed a 1-hour field enzyme immunoassay (EIA) for detecting antibody to Sin Nombre virus in deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus). The assay specificity and sensitivity were comparable to those of a standard EIA.

Genetic Diversity and Distribution of Peromyscus-Borne Hantaviruses in North America
The 1993 outbreak of hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS) in the southwestern United States was associated with Sin Nombre virus, a rodent-borne hantavirus; The virus' primary reservoir is the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus).
