Venom components are invaluable in biomedical research owing to their specificity and
potency. Many of these components exist in two genera of rattlesnakes, Crotalus and …

Developmental phenotypic changes can evolve under selection imposed by age-and size-
related ecological differences. Many of these changes occur through programmed …

Ontogenetic changes in venom composition have been described in Bothrops snakes, but
only a few studies have attempted to identify the targeted paralogues or the molecular …

Differences in snake venom composition occur across all taxonomic levels and it has been
argued that this variation represents an adaptation that has evolved to facilitate the capture …

To corroborate the ontogenetic shift in the venom composition of the Mexican Black-tailed
Rattlesnake (Crotalus molossus nigrescens) previously reported through the census …

Snake venoms have evolved in several families of Caenophidae, and their toxins have been
assumed to be biochemical weapons with a role as a trophic adaptation. However, it …

We present a case of neurotoxic effects in a pediatric patient after envenomation by a timber
rattlesnake (Crotalus horridus) in the Appalachian upstate of South Carolina. Though some …

On 17 June 2019, we collected a unique juvenile rattlesnake from a wildlife response call on
Jekyll Island State Park, GA. The snake exhibited intermediate color patterns and gross …

Differences in snake venom composition occur across all taxonomic levels and it has been
argued that this variation represents an adaptation that has evolved to facilitate the capture …

Venom is an integral feeding trait in many animal species. Although venom often varies
ontogenetically, little is known about the proximate physiological mediators of venom …
