Long-term Studies of Hantavirus Reservoir Populations in the Southwestern United States: A Synthesis
A series of intensive, longitudinal, mark-recapture studies of hantavirus infection dynamics in reservoir populations in the southwestern United States indicates consistent patterns as well as important differences... -
From:BMC Evolutionary Biology (Vol. 8) Peer-ReviewedBackground Deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) and congeneric species are the most common North American mammals. They represent an emerging system for the genetic analyses of the physiological and behavioral bases of...
