| seroprevalence of toxoplasma gondii in rodents from various locations in peninsular malaysia. | numerous studies have reported the prevalence of toxoplasmosis among malaysians and various domestic animals; but there is paucity of information on its prevalence among rodents which could potentially contribute to the transmission of toxoplasma gondii in both domestic and sylvatic fauna. five hundred twenty-six rodents were captured from six locations in malaysia and identified to species. serum samples were collected from these rodents and tested for t.gondii antibodies using an immunofluores ... | 2015 | 26521512 |

| movement trajectories and habitat partitioning of small mammals in logged and unlogged rain forests on borneo. | 1. non-volant animals in tropical rain forests differ in their ability to exploit the habitat above the forest floor and also in their response to habitat variability. it is predicted that specific movement trajectories are determined both by intrinsic factors such as ecological specialization, morphology and body size and by structural features of the surrounding habitat such as undergrowth and availability of supportive structures. 2. we applied spool-and-line tracking in order to describe mov ... | 2006 | 16922857 |
| ectoparasites of small mammals in four localities of wildlife reserves in peninsular malaysia. | field surveys of ectoparasites on rodents and scandents were conducted in four localities of wildlife reserves in peninsular malaysia from october 2008 to november 2009. a total of 16 animals comprising 5 species of hosts were caught and examined for ectoparasites. the hosts examined were maxomys rajah, maxomys whiteheadi, leopoldamys sabanus, lariscus insignis and tupaia glis. of these hosts, 9 genera, consisting of 14 species of ectoparasites were extracted. three species of ticks (ixodidae), ... | 2011 | 22299462 |
