Blood-gas properties of plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi)
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A, Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2006 Plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi) is one of the blind subterranean mole rats that spend their life solely underground in sealed burrows. It is one of the special species of the Qinghai-Tibet plateau. In their burrows, oxygen is low and carbon dioxide is high and their contents fluctuate with the change of seasons, soil types, rain and depth of burrows.

p53 gene cloning and response to hypoxia in the plateau zokor, Myospalax baileyi [PDF]
Animal Biology, 2018 The plateau zokor (Myospalax baileyi) is a specialized subterranean rodent that lives on the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau. The species has evolved a series of strategies to adapt to its hypoxic environment and hypercapnia.

The hypoxia adaptation of small mammals to plateau and underground burrow conditions
Animal Models and Experimental Medicine, Volume 4, Issue 4, Page 319-328, December 2021., 2021 Small mammals have evolved mechanisms of hypoxia adaptation living under plateau and underground burrow conditions. Abstract Oxygen is one of the important substances for the survival of most life systems on the earth, and plateau and underground burrow systems are two typical hypoxic environments.

Impact of groundwater table and plateau zokors (Myospalax baileyi) on ecosystem respiration in the Zoige Peatlands of China. [PDF]
PLoS One, 2014 Peatlands contain large amount of carbon stock that is vulnerable to release into the atmosphere. Mostly because of human impact, the peatlands at Zoige Wetlands face severe degradation, and the groundwater table is now lower than before, which has increased the population of the plateau zokor, a burrowing rodent.
