Dear Riccardo, I will share this messege with Biologist working with Small Mammals Kinds Regards

Andreas Sutter

Hi Riccardo,

If you haven't already done so, I suggest to contact Gerald Heckel at the University of Bern, Switzerland.

http://www.cmpg.iee.unibe.ch/content/about_us/researchers/gerald_heckel/index_eng.html

Gerald works on different Microtus species (predominantly Arvalis) and there's a good chance he's got some tissues from the species mentioned.

Cheers, Andreas
