Coevolution of diet and prey-specific venom activity supports the role of selection in snake venom evolution

The processes that drive the evolution of snake venom variability, particularly the role of diet, have been a topic of intense recent research interest. Here, we test whether extensive variation in venom composition in the medically important viper genus Echis is associated with shifts in diet. Exam...
