Intraspecific venom variation in the medically important puff adder ( <i>Bitis arietans</i> ): comparative venom gland transcriptomics, in vitro venom activity and immunological recognition by antivenom

2024-03-14

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> Variation in snake venoms is well documented, both between and within species, with intraspecific venom variation often correlated with geographically distinct populations. The puff adder, Bitis arietans , is found widely distributed across sub-Saharan Africa and into the Arabian Peninsula where it is considered a leading cause of the ∼310,000 annual snakebites across the region, with its ven...
