Abstract:
Intraspecific phylogeography and the phylogenetic relationships of recently-diverged taxa are best assessed with the use of a genetic marker that coalesces rapidly and thus provides phylogenetically informative characters for closely-related taxa. Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) fits these criteria and was thereby ideal for analyzing genetic variation within and among the youngest taxonomic members of the Peromyscus maniculatus species group, P. sejugis (restricted to two islands in the Sea of Cortés), P. maniculatus (distributed throughout North and Central America) and P. keeni (a coastal s

Abstract:
Parental care during the postnatal period has a major role in emotional development of the offspring. In the biparental species, the California mouse (Peromyscus californicus), both the father and the mother have a highly participative role in the postnatal care of pups. Previous studies have shown that if the father is removed, the mother does not compensate for his absence, thus the pups are deficient in care. Here we present results obtained after evaluating the emotional behavior and serotonin (5-HT) neurotransmission of adult California mice after father separation. Pairs of California mi

Abstract:
Various aspects of performance (e.g., sprint speed, grip strength) are thought to be important determinants of the success of animals in natural activities such as foraging, mating, and escaping from predators. However, it is generally known that morphological properties enhancing one type of performance (e.g., speed) can lead to a reduction in another (e.g., strength). Such performance trade-offs have been quantified at the inter-specific level, but evidence at the inter-individual level remains equivocal. To test for the presence of a performance trade-off, I initiated a study on wild white-

Climate change is predicted to cause shifts in average temperature and increase extreme heat events. The common paradigm is species will shift their range in order to deal with the changing climate, but endotherms may have the ability to physiologically acclimate to these changes. To test this I measured body temperatures (Tb), metabolic rate, corticosterone expression, heat shock protein accumulation, and immune function to determine the integrative systems responses to heat stressors in mice.

Given the distribution and probable evolutionary history of the Peromyscus maniculatus species group, an interspecific comparison of microsatellite variation among these species would be logically based (at least initially) on primers isolated from the genome of a geographically central population of P. maniculatus.

Behavioral differences among closely related species can result from adaptation via natural selection, and this is especially true of innately expressed behavior that shows evidence of complex design or function.

Resting metabolic rate (RMR) represents the lowest level of aerobic metabolism in a resting individual. By contrast, maximal metabolic rate (MMR) reflects the upper limit of aerobic metabolism achieved during intensive exercise. As RMR and MMR define the boundaries of the possible levels of metabolism expressed by a normothermic individual, a key question is whether RMR and MMR are correlated. To evaluate the relationship between RMR and MMR, I took repeated paired measurements of RMR and MMR on 165 white-footed mice (Peromyscus leucopus) during the summer of 2018.

Golden mice (Ochrotomys nuttalli) are generally an elusive and rare species throughout their geographic range in the southeastern United States.

Golden mice are less vagile, and likely disperse shorter distances than other sympatric species such as the white-footed mouse (Peromyscus leucopus). Conversely, white-footed mice are considered habitat generalists that inhabit a variety of habitat types, are more vagile, and disperse farther than golden mice. Because of this it is likely that go
