Microbiological Status

Laboratory colonies of the Neotropical muroid rodent Zygodontomys brevicauda have been employed in studies of arbovirus epidemiology and are currently the subjects of experimental research on tropical mammalian reproductive physiology and evolutionary quantitative genetics. Captive-bred litters typically consist of 4 or 5 pups weighing 3-4 g each at birth. Adults 20-40 weeks old average 60-80 g with some sexual dimorphism. Females are sexually mature at 3-4 weeks of age, males at 6-8 weeks. Ovulation is spontaneous and gestation is 25 days. Preliminary observations are provided on the microbiological status and parasites of captive-bred animals.
