Malaria Genetics & Genomics African tree rats are closely related to field mice, and the laboratory rat and mouse. Their natural habitat is the gallery forests found lining streams and rivers, where they build nests of leaves at heights of 2 to 3 m above ground. Colonies of thicket rats have been introduced into the laboratory for use in parasitological studies, with limited sucess due to their poor breeding performance under laboratory conditions.
