Prey specificity of predatory venoms
Biological Reviews, Volume 99, Issue 6, Page 2253-2273, December 2024.ABSTRACT Venom represents a key adaptation of many venomous predators, allowing them to immobilise prey quickly through chemical rather than physical warfare. Evolutionary arms races between prey and a predator are believed to be the main factor influencing the potency and composition of predatory venoms.

VenomCap: An exon‐capture probe set for the targeted sequencing of snake venom genes
Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 24, Issue 8, November 2024.Abstract Snake venoms are complex mixtures of toxic proteins that hold significant medical, pharmacological and evolutionary interest. To better understand the genetic diversity underlying snake venoms, we developed VenomCap, a novel exon‐capture probe set targeting toxin‐coding genes from a wide range of elapid snakes, with a particular focus on the ...
