Abstract excerpt

In our previous comparison of the postnatal growth of two laboratory strains of the musk shrew (Suncus murinus), the large shrews originating in Bangladesh (BAN strain) and the small shrews from Nagasaki, Japan (NAG strain), we found that differences in the 120-day adult body weight of the two strains (BAN: males 135.3g and females 82.0g; NAG: 52.9 and 34.2g, respectively) reflect both an approximately 2.5 times...
