Influence of synthetic mustelid semiochemicals on population dynamics of the deer mouse
… study I investigated population changes in the deermouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) in the southwestern part of the Morice Forest District of the Prince Rupert Forest Region of British Columbia. I tested the hypothesis that synthetic weasel odours would adversely affect deer mouse population …

Causes and consequences of the postfire increase in deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) abundance
<p>Wildfire triggers an increase in deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus) abundance. Here, I describe this phenomenon, investigate its causes, and explore the consequences of the postfire increase in mice for conifer recruitment in burned forest. I documented a shift in small mammal communities away …

Using Resident Small Mammals to Assess the Habitat Potential of Experimental Biofuels Feedstocks
… This study assessed the effects of feedstocks on deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) home ranges and survival, and compared the small mammal diversity among feedstocks. Small mammals were live-captured across the experimental landscape for 7 months in 2011 and 6 months in 2012 following Pollock’s …

Small mammal demographics in North Dakota conservation reserve program plantings
… small mammals were captured on CRP tracts, with deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) comprising 92% of all small mammals recorded. Largest deer mouse populations (64/ha .and 51/ha) occurred in late August and early September, 1990. Peak densities in 1990 were over twice as high as those of 1989. …

The effects of a silvicultural sludge application on small mammal populations and the potential of Giardia contamination in a forest ecosystem
… was also investigated. Populations of the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), Oregon vole (Microtus oregoni), Townsend chipmunk (Eutamias townsendii), shrews (Sorex spp.), and a few species caught occasionally, were sampled in control and treatment study sites from May 1990 to October …

Effects of connectivity and regional dynamics on restoration trajectories for small mammal communities on Midwestern grasslands
… yrs old). Overall, the dominant species were the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), prairie vole (Microtus ochrogaster), and meadow vole (Microtus pennsylvanicus); which combined represented 92-97% of total captures each year. Typical restoration trajectories for small mammal communities …

Countermeasures Against Viral Hemorrhagic Fevers
… include: the multimammate rat, cotton rat, house mouse, deer mouse, ticks, and mosquitoes. Ebola, Marburg, Lassa, and Crimean-Congo viruses are known to spread from person to person contact. However, airborne transmission of VHFs is thought to be very rare (CDC, 1988, Baron RC, 1983). Transmission …

Environmental Factors Affecting the Landscape-Scale Spatio-Temporal Distribution of Small Mammal Assemblages Across the Northern Great Plains of North America
… Cropland with clay soils was dominated by deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus), whereas areas with higher proportions of native grassland and moderately sandy soils supported communities with more sagebrush voles (Lemmiscus curtatus). Areas with clay soils and higher annual precipitation were …

A comparative study of putative melanogenic and melanogenesis inhibiting substances in the vertebrate integument.
… in favor of this supposition. Examination of the deer mouse, Peromyscus boylei, demonstrated that its pale ventral coat integument appears to contain a melanization inhibiting factor (MIF) , and that its dark dorsal coat integument has variable melanization inhibiting factor activity. …

Ecological responses by Mexican spotted owls to environmental variation in the Sacramento Mountains, New Mexico
… rodents were most common. These included the deer mouse (Peromyscus maniculatus), brush mouse (P. boylii), Mexican vole (Microtus mexicartus), long-tailed vole (M. longicaudus), and Mexican woodrat (Neotoma mexicana). Depending on the year of study, the five species accounted for 53-77 % of …

Glycerol permeability in two species of Peromyscus
… the permeability of the erythrocytes of rat and mouse to erythritol, mannitol, glycerol, and thiourea. Rat erythrocytes were more permeable to glycerol than to thiourea, whereas the reverse was true for mouse erythrocytes. Mouse erythrocytes also displayed a high degree of permeability to …

Seasonal dispersal tendencies of sylvan deer mice (peromyscus maniculatus) with montana rangelands
We examined seasonal dispersal habits of sylvan deer mice (Peromyscus maniculatus) within two Montana rangeland types over a three - year period. The rangeland types included a grassland and shrub-steppe habitat. Within the state of Montana, both habitat types commonly contain peridomestic settings …
