Negative impact of mild arid conditions in natural rodent populations revealed using markers of physiological condition in natura

The study examines how mild arid conditions affect two rodent species, finding that physiological stress markers indicate malnutrition and contrasting adaptations to water conservation.

Divergence of olfactory receptors associated with the evolution of assortative mating and reproductive isolation in mice

This study identifies olfactory receptor genes associated with assortative mating and reproductive isolation in mice by combining population genomics and functional predictions.

Females prefer cooperative males even when cooperative behavior is unobserved: evidence from the mound-building mouse, Mus spicilegus

The study shows that female mound-building mice prefer cooperative males even when their cooperation is not observed, suggesting mate choice is influenced by cues other than direct behavioral observation.
