This project investigates the evolutionary development of venom in animals by analyzing the transcriptomes of venom glands. It aims to understand the molecular processes behind the emergence of venom as an adaptive trait across different species.
Animal venom is a remarkable example of convergent evolutionary novelty - it has independently evolved across all phyla of the animal kingdom to subdue prey and predators.
To produce and deliver this potent biochemical weapon, venomous animals possess specialized anatomical structures which emerge from different developmental tissues in the various lineages.
How animals have repeatedly evolved this key adaptive trait is unknown.
The recent omics revolution has generated an explosion of venom-gla…
