Duvernoy’s Gland Transcriptomics of the Plains Black-Headed Snake, <i>Tantilla nigriceps</i> (Squamata, Colubridae): Unearthing the Venom of Small Rear-Fanged Snakes

The venoms of small rear-fanged snakes (RFS) remain largely unexplored, despite increased recognition of their importance in understanding venom evolution more broadly. Sequencing the transcriptome of venom-producing glands has greatly increased the ability of researchers to examine and characterize...
