Transition From Land to Sea: Comparative Genomics Illuminates the Adaptive Evolution of the Intertidal Spider

open access: yesMolecular Ecology Resources, Volume 26, Issue 4, May 2026.
ABSTRACT Spiders are renowned for their ecological versatility and silk‐based innovations in materials science, yet marine environments remain virtually uncolonized by this predominantly terrestrial lineage. A striking exception is the obligate intertidal spider genus Desis, whose members have evolved extraordinary physiological and behavioural ...

Spider Venom as Bio-Insecticide

open access: yes, 2023
Insecticidal toxins derived from insect predators and parasitoids are of growing interest in the development of bio-insecticides at present. One of the major features contributing to the overall success of spiders is the production of a highly toxic venom from their venom glands that they employ to subdue prey and deter predators.
