[Maya] - Noob question about deleting vertices

obloquy

Hey, been using blender for a while now and making the switch to maya so please forgive my ignorance if this is plainly obvious... but is there a way to delete an edgeloop and have it automatically delete its joining verts rather than having to delete it manually?  In blender I believe you just dissolve the edge and it will automatically merge/delete the verts.  Just wondering if theres a way to do it in maya?

Forgive the impossible noob question

Ctrl + Backspace

You can use ctrl+delete or use delete edge/vertex in the edit mesh menu.

Personally, I use shift+RMB to acces the context menu then "delete edge".
