DOI: 10.1007/s13364-020-00476-0
Abstract: Animals that feed on forest tree seeds, such as Apodemus mice, increase in number after a mast year. At high latitudes, there is a similar delayed response by Myodes voles to high seed crops of… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.ygcen.2018.10.021
Abstract: We aim to explore the presence of a novel cell type, telocytes (TCs), in the bank vole testis interstitium following G-coupled membrane estrogen receptor (GPER) signaling withdrawal. In addition, the involvement of interstitial cells in… read more here.

DOI: 10.1038/s42003-024-06549-z
Abstract: Genetic admixture introduces new variants at relatively high frequencies, potentially aiding rapid responses to environmental changes. Here, we evaluate its role in adaptive variation related to climatic conditions in bank voles (Clethrionomys glareolus) in Britain,… read more here.

Interplay between vertebrate adaptive immunity and bacterial infectivity genes: Bank vole MHC versus Borrelia afzelii OspC
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2024 at "Molecular Ecology"
DOI: 10.1111/mec.17534
Abstract: Coevolution of parasites with their hosts may lead to balancing selection on genes involved in determining the specificity of host–parasite interactions, but examples of such specific interactions in wild vertebrates are scarce. Here, we investigated… read more here.
