Coalescent-based genome analyses resolve the early branches of the euarchontoglires [PDF]
, 2013 Despite numerous large-scale phylogenomic studies, certain parts of the mammalian tree are extraordinarily difficult to resolve. We used the coding regions from 19 completely sequenced genomes to study the relationships within the super-clade ...

A study of Epstein-Barr virus infection in the Chinese tree shrew(Tupaia belangeri chinensis)
Virology Journal, 2017 Background Epstein–Barr virus (EBV) is closely associated with many human diseases, including a variety of deadly human malignant tumours. However, due to the lack of ideal animal models,the biological characteristics of EBV, particularly its function in

Predation by Amphibians and Small Mammals on the Spruce Budworm (Lepidoptera: Tortricidae) [PDF]
, 2017 Stomach-content analyses of pitfall-trapped amphibians and small mammals showed that the eastern American toad, Bujo americanus americanus, and the wood frog, Rana sylvatica, preyed on late instars and moths of the spruce budworm, Choristoneura ...

Aspects of tree shrew consolidated sleep structure resemble human sleep
Communications Biology, 2021 Dimanico et al investigated sleep in tree shrews using electrophysiological recordings and compared it to equivalent read-outs in rats and humans. They reported that there was considerable homology of sleep structure between humans and tree shrews ...

The tree shrew is a promising model for the study of influenza B virus infection
Virology Journal, 2019 Background Influenza B virus is a main causative pathogen of annual influenza epidemics, however, research on influenza B virus in general lags behind that on influenza A viruses, one of the important reasons is studies on influenza B viruses in animal ...

Age-related changes of corneal endothelial cell in healthy Chinese tree shrew measured by non-contact specular microscope [PDF]
International Journal of Ophthalmology, 2017 AIM: To determine the impact of age on the morphology of endothelial cells and central corneal thickness (CCT) in Chinese tree shrew. METHODS: One-hundred and twenty eyes of 60 healthy Chinese tree shrews were studied. Based on age, the tree shrews were
