Comparative Genomic In Situ Hybridization and the Possible Role of Retroelements in the Karyotypic Evolution of Three Akodontini Species

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2017, Issue 1, 2017., 2017
South American Akodontini rodents are characterized by a large number of chromosome rearrangements. Among them, the genus Akodon has been extensively analyzed with classical and molecular cytogenetics, which allowed the identification of a large number of intra‐ and interspecific chromosomal variation due to Robertsonian rearrangements, pericentric ...

Mammalia, Rodentia, Sigmodontinae, Euneomys chinchilloides (Waterhouse, 1839): range extension [PDF]

Check List, 2010
A new record of Euneomys chinchilloides (Waterhouse, 1839) at Parque Provincial Aconcagua (Mendoza, Argentina), is reported based on two fresh specimens found dead and several cranial remains found in owl pellet samples. The current record enlarges its distribution in the Andean region of Argentina ca. 250 km to the north.

Serological Survey of Hantavirus in Inhabitants from Tropical and Subtropical Areas of Brazil

Advances in Virology, Volume 2016, Issue 1, 2016., 2016
Brazil has reported more than 1,600 cases of hantavirus cardiopulmonary syndrome (HPS) since 1993, with a 39% rate of reported fatalities. Using a recombinant nucleocapsid protein of Araraquara virus, we performed ELISA to detect IgG antibodies against hantavirus in human sera.

Taxonomic identification using geometric morphometric approach and limited data: an example using the upper molars of two sympatric species of Calomys (Cricetidae: Rodentia)

Zoologia (Curitiba), 2017
The taxonomic identification of micromammals might be complicated when the study material is fragmented, as it is the case with pellets and fossil material.

Hantavirus in rodents in the United States: Temporal and spatial trends and report of new hosts

Ecosphere, Volume 16, Issue 3, March 2025.
Abstract In North America, the rodent‐borne hantavirus pulmonary syndrome is predominantly caused by the Sin Nombre virus, typically associated with the deer mouse Peromyscus maniculatus. Utilizing data from the National Ecological Observatory Network (NEON) hantavirus program, we assessed factors that may influence the spatial and temporal ...

Rodents show darker and redder coloration in warm and rainy environments

Global Ecology and Biogeography, Volume 33, Issue 3, Page 426-438, March 2024.
Abstract Aim Animal coloration varies in response to environmental conditions. One well‐known principle, Gloger's rule, suggests that warmer and wetter environments lead to more pigmented animals. Yet, the original formulation lacks differentiation between the two primary melanin pigments: eumelanin and pheomelanin.
