Comparative venom analysis between melanistic and normally-colored phenotypes of the common adder ( <i>Vipera berus</i> )

2024-03-19

Abstract excerpt

1 Snake venom is an ecologically-relevant functional trait directly linked with a snake’s fitness and survival, facilitating predation and defense. Snake venom variation occurs at all taxonomic levels, but the study of variation at intraspecific level is still in its early stages. The common adder ( Vipera berus ) exhibits considerable variation in color phenotypes across its distribution range. Melanistic (fully...
