any of numerous small rodents of the genus Rattus and related genera of the family Muridae; many are aggressive and omnivorous pests found about human habitations. Rats not only cause great economic loss but are vectors of human disease; they harbor at least eleven species of intestinal parasites that are transmissible to humans, such as tapeworms, roundworms, and trichinae, and they are reservoirs for the infective agents of plague, typhus, Weil's disease, and rat-bite fever. Albino mutants of R. norvegicus are used as laboratory animals.
