| karyotype composition of some rodents and marsupials from chapada diamantina (bahia, brasil). | the chapada diamantina (cd) is located in bahia state, between 11-14 degrees s and 41-43 degrees w, being part of the serra do espinhaço. the occurrence of different habitats and transition areas permits an interesting mammal fauna composition, with species from different biomes living in sympatry. species of didelphimorphia and rodentia are important members of mammal communities in almost all different habitats, and morphological and cytogenetic characters are important for a correct identific ... | 2007 | 18094834 |
| barn owl (tyto alba) predation on small mammals and its role in the control of hantavirus natural reservoirs in a periurban area in southeastern brazil. | the aim of this study was to inventory the species of small mammals in uberlândia, minas gerais, brazil, based on regurgitated pellets of the barn owl and to compare the frequency of rodent species in the diet and in the environment. since in the region there is a high incidence of hantavirus infection, we also evaluate the importance of the barn owl in the control of rodents that transmit the hantavirus. data on richness and relative abundance of rodents in the municipality were provided by the ... | 2008 | 19197490 |
| colonization process of the brazilian common vesper mouse, calomys expulsus (cricetidae, sigmodontinae): a biogeographic hypothesis. | riverine barriers have been associated to genetic diversification and speciation of several taxa. the rio são francisco is one of the largest rivers in south america, representing the third largest river basin in brazil and operating as a geographic barrier to gene flow of different taxa. to evaluate the influence of the rio são francisco in the speciation of small rodents, we investigated the genetic structure of calomys expulsus with phylogenetic and network analyses of cytochrome b dna. our r ... | 2011 | 21441460 |
| trypanosomatids in small mammals of an agroecosystem in central brazil: another piece in the puzzle of parasite transmission in an anthropogenic landscape. | we surveyed infection by trypanosoma spp. and leishmania spp. in small wild mammals from cumari, goiás state aiming to investigate the diversity of trypanosomatid in a modified landscape of the brazilian cerrado (and possible infection overlapping with canids from the same area). blood, skin, spleen, and liver samples were collected for parasitological, serological, and molecular assays. gracilinanusagilis was the most abundant species (n = 70; 48.6%) and it was the only one with patent parasite ... | 2019 | 31615153 |
