This is the first report focusing on the conservation genetics of Bothrops insularis, an endemic critically endangered Brazilian snake. We recovered low (allelic content) and medium (heterozygosity) genetic diversity indexes, significant inbreeding coefficient for the in situ population and a slight genetic structure within and between populations ...

Snake Venomics and Antivenomics of Bothrops diporus, a Medically Important Pitviper in Northeastern Argentina [PDF]
Snake species within genus Bothrops are responsible for more than 80% of the snakebites occurring in South America. The species that cause most envenomings in Argentina, B.

Rapid purification of serine proteinases from Bothrops alternatus and Bothrops moojeni venoms
Envenomation by Bothrops species results, among other symptoms, in hemostatic disturbances. These changes can be ascribed to the presence of enzymes, primarily serine proteinases some of which are structurally similar to thrombin and specifically cleave fibrinogen releasing fibrinopeptides.

Evidence of facultative parthenogenesis in three Neotropical pitviper species of the Bothrops atrox group [PDF]
We examined four suspected cases of facultative parthenogenesis in three species of a neotropical lineage of pitvipers of the Bothrops atrox group. Reproduction without mating was observed in captive females of B. atrox, B. moojeni and B. leucurus housed

Genetic relationships among species of the genus Bothrops based on RAPD markers
The genetic relationships among 11 species of Bothrops found in Brazil were determined using random amplified fragment (RAPD) information. A total of 239 amplified bands were scored using 20 aleatory primers.
