Interactions of Mothers with Partners of Different Sexes in Meadow Voles and Prairie Voles

Journal of Mammalogy, 1992
The behavior of lactating female meadow voles ( Microtus pennsylvanicus ) and prairie voles (M. ochrogaster ) housed with partners of either sex was examined in an indoor, seminatural environment. Females were observed either alone, in the presence of the breeding male, or in the presence of a familiar, virgin female (sibling).

Reproduction and Duration of Placental Scars in the Prairie Vole and the Eastern Vole

Journal of Mammalogy, 1967
The mean number of embryos in 134 prairie voles was 3.89 with a range of 2 to 7. Corresponding values in 153 eastern voles were 4.46 and 1 to 9. The mode was four in both species. An estimated 89.4% and 93.0% of the ova liberated were implanted in the prairie voles and the eastern voles, respectively.

Sexual Differentiation in Prairie Voles: The Effects of Corticosterone and Testosterone

Physiology & Behavior, 1997
Prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) exhibit low levels of physical sexual dimorphism and have endogenous basal corticosterone levels that are 5-10 times higher than those measured in rats; prairie voles also do not show a postnatal period of adrenal hyporesponsivity.

Aggressive Behavior of the Meadow and Prairie Voles

Journal of Mammalogy, 1962
A comparison was made of the intra- and interspecific aggressive behavior of the prairie vole, Microtus ochrogaster , and the meadow vole, M. pennsylvanicus . M. ochrogaster was found to display little aggressive behavior towards others of its own species; when confined together, individuals almost always huddled and groomed each other within a few ...

Cohabitation induced Fos immunoreactivity in the monogamous prairie vole

Brain Research, 2003
Cohabitation of sexually nai;ve male and female prairie voles (Microtus ochrogaster) triggers a cascade of physiological changes that result in the formation of stable pair bonds. In the present study we used the expression of c-Fos protein to identify CNS regions activated during initial social contact in heterosexual, male/male and female/female ...
