(19) Borrelia burgdorferi, the causative agent of Lyme disease, was isolated from the liver of a passerine bird, Catharus fuscescens (veery), and from larval Ixodes dammini (tick) feeding on Pheucticus ludovicianus (rose-breasted grosbeak) and Geothlypis trichas (common yellowthroat).
(20) Free-flying passerine migrants respond to natural fluctuations in the earth's magnetic field.
Trembler
Definition:
(n.) One who trembles.
Example Sentences:
(1) The Trembler mouse suffers from a dominantly inherited autosomal mutation affecting the Schwann cell activities, which results in an abnormal myelination of the peripheral nervous system.
(2) The trembler (Tr) mouse serves as a model for CMT1A because of phenotypic similarities and because the Tr locus maps to mouse chromosome 11 in a region of conserved synteny with human chromosome 17.
(3) Electron microscopy, including a quantitative analysis of myelination was performed on the nerves of Trembler mice from birth to senility and compared with the findings in control mice.

(5) In the 2-d-old mice, Po is detected in essentially similar amounts in Trembler and normal PNS, whereas its level in adult mutant sciatic nerves is never greater than 20% of the control.
(6) The Trembler mouse is a neurological mutant showing dominant inheritance.
(7) Such inhibition, however, was not observed in the adult Trembler nerve (Brain Res.
