The rodent subfamily Sigmodontinae includes New World rats and mice, with at least 376 species. (wikipedia.org)
Sigmodontinae is the second-largest subfamily of muroid rodents, with 377 species and 74 genera in eight tribes. (animaldiversity.org)
Arenaviruses have been divided into 2 groups based on whether the virus is found to infect Old World (ie, Eastern Hemisphere) rodents (family Muridae, subfamily Murinae) or New World (ie, Western Hemisphere) rodents (family Muridae, subfamily Sigmodontinae). (medscape.com)

Genus3
The name "Sigmodontinae" is based on the name of the type genus, Sigmodon. (wikipedia.org)
Also unresolved are the affinities of subfamilies containing only one genus (mouselike hamsters, the maned rat ). (en-academic.com)

Rodent1
largest extant rodent family, indeedthe largest of all mammalian families, encompassing more than 1,383 species of the "true" mice ( mouse ) and rats ( rat ). (en-academic.com)
Members of this group, the New World rats and mice, display a vast array of habits and physical characteristics that is surpassed in scope only by the Murinae , the Old World rats and mice. (animaldiversity.org)
The 300 genera of muroid rodents are classified within 18 subfamilies, but more than 200 of them (and nearly 1,000 species) belong to only two subfamilies-Sigmodontinae (New World rats and mice) and Murinae (Old World rats and mice). (en-academic.com)
Other groups, however, cannot be classified with certainty and may or may not be a hodgepodge of unrelated genera and species (New World rats and mice, dendromurines, and Malagasy rats and mice). (en-academic.com)

For instance, some assemblages, such as blind mole rats ( blind mole rat ) and bamboo rats ( bamboo rat ), are very distinctive and have been treated in the past as separate families. (en-academic.com)
Species2
Fossil evidence may support the single-family arrangement because clearly diagnosable groups of living species, such as mole rats and bamboo rats, lose their distinction when their lineages are traced far back in time. (en-academic.com)
The swamp rats are distributed in Argentina, southern Paraguay, Uruguay and southern Brazil, with two species currently accepted: Scapteromys aquaticus Thomas, 1920 and Scapteromys tumidus Waterhouse, 1837. (scielo.org)
Infection2
Adherence of non-typable Haemophilus influenzae to respiratory epithelium was evaluated in a cotton rat model of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) infection. (utmb.edu)
The water-rats may present different levels of importance in the transmission dynamics of S. mansoni infection cycle for each area, and can be considered important wild-reservoirs of this human disease. (scielo.org)
Cotton1
In a second series of experiments, attachment of non-typable H. influenzae to epithelial cells collected from RSV infected cotton rats at the time of maximum virus replication was not different from controls (57.4 ± 18.3 vs 52.0 ± 24.3 bacteria per 50 cells). (utmb.edu)
