De novo genome assembly of Vipera ammodytes ammodytes reveals venom gene expansion and ecological adaptations

2025-03-20

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>The Western nose-horned viper (<italic>Vipera ammodytes ammodytes</italic>) is the most venomous snake in Europe, known for its potent venom and the danger it poses to humans. To better understand the genetic architecture behind its venom composition and ecological adaptations, we assembled a high-quality <italic>de novo</italic> chromosomal-level genome for this species. Using a combin...
