Population Genomics of White-Footed Mice (Peromyscus leucopus) in New York City [PDF]

, 2015
Urbanization significantly alters natural ecosystems. New York City (NYC) is one of the oldest and most urbanized cities in North America, but still maintains substantial populations of some native wildlife.

Evidence of Population Fragmentation of the Western European Hedgehog Erinaceus europaeus in Urban Landscapes

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The Western European hedgehog (Erinaceus europaeus) is a declining mammal increasingly associated with urban landscapes. This study uses 1413 SNP markers to investigate the species' genetic structure and connectivity in Greater London, UK, and surrounding areas.

Hybridization and Immunology in Animals: A Review

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
Hybridization can reshape immune function by introducing novel genetic variation and combining parental immune traits. Across animal taxa, this process may influence resistance, tolerance, and pathogen dynamics, with important implications for disease ecology and One Health.

Ticks, Ixodes scapularis, Feed Repeatedly on White-Footed Mice despite Strong Inflammatory Response: An Expanding Paradigm for Understanding Tick–Host Interactions

Frontiers in Immunology, 2017
Ticks transmit infectious agents including bacteria, viruses and protozoa. However, their transmission may be compromised by host resistance to repeated tick feeding.

Emergence of <i>Ixodes scapularis</i> and <i>Borrelia burgdorferi</i>, the Lyme Disease Vector and Agent, in Ohio

Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2014
Lyme disease, the most common vector-borne disease in the United States, is caused by a tick-borne infection with Borrelia burgdorferi. Currently, Ohio is considered by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) to be non-endemic for Lyme ...
