Nutritional implications of coprophagy and cecal function in two microtine rodents (Microtus pennsylvanicus and Microtus pinetorum)
… function were examined for the meadow vole (Microtus pennsylvanicus) and the pine vole (Microtus pinetorum) as diet quality was manipulated. The nutritional response of the voles to a high and low quality diet was measured after the coprophagic or cecal component was eliminated from the …

Patterns of coexistence in Microtus pennsylvanicus and Synaptomys cooperi
The microtine rodents Microtus pennsylvanicus and Synaptomys cooperi are sympatric and occur in the same general habitats. Interspecific competition that varies in intensity would be predicted because of similarities in life history characteristics and temporal variation in Microtus density. …

The nutritonal ecology of meadow voles (Microtus pennsylvanicus) under differing environmental conditions
… morphology and physiology in meadow voles (Microtus pennsylvanicus) were investigated. Voles were randomly divided (10 in each group) and placed in 15-day treatment regimes [cold (5 C) and warm (21 C), daylengths long (18L:6D) and short (6L:18D), and diets of high fiber (50% neutral …

A bioenergetic simulation model of orchard populations of the pine vole (Microtus pinetorum)
… apple orchard populations of the pine vole (Microtus pinetorum) in southwest Virginia. Population. size and demographic parameters were modeled on a weekly basis as functions of bioenerqetic status. Forage gross energy availability, digestibility, palatability, and preference were functions …

Bioenergetics and nutrition of the pine vole (microtus pinetorum) in two Virginia apple orchards
Bioenergetic measurements were made on adult, lactating females, and growing juvenile pine voles. Adult pine voles showed a seasonal cycle in daily maintenance energy requirements. Winter was energetically the most expensive season. Requirements during the summer season were the lowest of all …

The acceptability and palatability of certain feeds, diluents, and poisons to pitymys, microtus, and peromyscus
Among the mice trapped for use in cage trials, gravid females were caught from January through August. Pine mice, intergradations between Pitymys pinetorum scalopsoides and P. pinetorum pinetorum, were found most easily trapped from January through June. The time and energy involved in trapping …

Agonistic behavior of <i>Peromyscus leucopus</i> and <i>Microtus pennsylvanicus</i>: implications for population distribution and dynamics
… between <em>Peromyscus leucopus</em> and <em>Microtus pennsylvanicus</em> influences levels of ACTH, and thus depresses the reproductive potential of one or both species. Exposure of maturing young to interspecific aggression might be especially critical since the most effective means of …

Home Range Analysis of the Montane Vole
This study on Microtus montanus was divided into three major sections: 1) An examination of nests, burrows, and runways, 2) A comparison of two methods of home range analysis--live trapping and radio-isotope tracing, and 3) A comparison of the home range of Microtus montanus with other species of …
