Key Points

  • The study aims to examine the prevalence of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats.
  • Genetic analysis of Vkorc1 polymorphisms in house mice and Norway rats
  • Assessment of mutation frequency in rodent populations
  • Evaluation of implications for rodenticide application strategies
  • High prevalence of resistance-associated mutations found in house mice
  • Indicates need for alternating rodenticide types
  • Supports integrated management approaches for effective rodent control

Abstract

The high prevalence of resistance-associated mutations in house mice suggests that different types of rodenticides should be alternated and integrated management approaches need to be emphasized in rodent control. © 2026 The Author(s).
