POPULATION CHARACTERISTICS OF Rattus rattus AND Mus musculus PRESENT IN RURAL COMMUNITIES IN YUCATÁN, MÉXICO
The aim of this study was to describe the abundance, weight and body length structures, and reproductive and health status of the black rat Rattus rattus and the house mouse Mus musculus from Yucatán, México. Rodents were trapped from May to September 2016 in rural households in the communities Xkal...

Rodents were trapped from May to September 2016 in rural households in the communities Xkalakdzonot (XKA) and Paraíso (PAR). A total of 236 M. musculus and 127 R. rattus were trapped over 3880 trap-nights. In XKA, R. rattus was more abundant than M. musculus, whereas in PAR, M. musculus was notably dominant over R. rattus. The sex ratio was 1:1 in both rodent species. Rattus rattus in classes 40.1–80 g and 120–139 mm were more abundant, whereas M. musculus in classes 8.1–12 g and 70–79 mm were more abundant. Mus musculus had similar weight, body length and reproductive and health parameters between communities. The majority of specimens of trapped rodents had a good body condition and few individuals had wounds. The information generated in this study is basic for understanding the ecology of commensal rodents, the dynamics of rodent-associated zoonosis transmission, and to design of integrated control programs for rodents.El objetivo del presente estudio fue describir la abundancia, estructura de pesos y longitudes, y parámetros reproductivos y de salud de la rata negra Rattus rattus y el ratón doméstico Mus musculus de Yucatán, México. De mayo a septiembre de 2016 se capturaron roedores en viviendas de las comunidades Xkalakdzonot (XKA) y Paraíso (PAR). En total se capturaron 236 M. musculus y 127 R. rattus con un esfuerzo de captura de 3880 noches trampa. En XKA, R. rattus fue más abundante que M. musculus, mientras que en PAR, M. musculus fue notablemente dominante sobre R. rattus. La proporción de sexos fue 1: 1 en ambas especies. Para R. rattus las clases más abundantes fueron 40.1–80 g y 120–139 mm, mientras que las clases 8.1–12 g y 70–79 mm fueron las más abundantes para M. musculus. Las características demográficas, reproductivas y de salud de M. musculus fueron similares en las dos comunidades. La mayoría de los individuos de ambas especies y comunidades presentaron una condición corporal buena y pocos especímenes tuvieron heridas. Este estudio aporta información básica para entender la ecología de los roedores comensales, la dinámica de transmisión de enfermedades asociadas a roedores y diseñar programas de control integrado para roedores.Universidad Autónoma de Yucatan2018-08-17info:eu-repo/semantics/articleinfo:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersionapplication/pdfhttps://www.revista.ccba.uady.mx/ojs/index.php/TSA/article/view/2480urn:ISSN:1870-0462-tsaes.v21i2.248010.56369/tsaes.2480Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems; Vol 21, No 2 (2018): (May - August)Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystems; Vol 21, No 2 (2018): (May - August)1870-0462reponame:Tropical and Subtropical Agroecosystemsinstname:UNIVERSIDAD AUTÓNOMA DE YUCATÁNinstacron:UADYenghttps://www.revista.ccba.uady.mx/ojs/index.php/TSA/article/view/2480/1155Copyright (c) 2018 Jesús Alonso Panti, Yessica Gurubel-González, Emir Palomo-Arjona, Rosy Cetina-Trejo, Carlos Machaín-Williams, María Robles, Silvia Hernández-Betancourthttp://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccessoai:ojs.www.revista.ccba.uady.mx:article/24802024-08-22T17:23:09Z |
