(Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Background The ShK toxin from Stichodactyla helianthus has established the therapeutic potential of sea anemone venom peptides, but many lineage-specific toxin families in Actiniarians remain uncharacterised. ...
  • Intra-colony venom diversity contributes to maintaining eusociality in a cooperatively breeding ant 
    Robinson, Samuel D.; Schendel, Vanessa; Schroeder, Christina I.; Moen, Sarah; Mueller, Alexander; Walker, Andrew A.; McKinnon, Naomi; Neely, G. G.; Vetter, Irina; King, Glenn F.; Undheim, Eivind A. B. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2023)
    Background Eusociality is widely considered to evolve through kin selection, where the reproductive success of an individual’s close relative is favored at the expense of its own. High genetic relatedness ...
  • Physiological constraints dictate toxin spatial heterogeneity in snake venom glands 
    Kazandjian, Taline D.; Hamilton, Brett R.; Robinson, Samuel D.; Hall, Steven R.; Bartlett, Keirah E.; Rowley, Paul; Wilkinson, Mark C.; Casewell, Nicholas R.; Undheim, Eivind A. B. (Journal article / Tidsskriftartikkel / PublishedVersion; Peer reviewed, 2022)
    Background Venoms are ecological innovations that have evolved numerous times, on each occasion accompanied by the co-evolution of specialised morphological and behavioural characters for venom production ...
