“…Some cone snail species, including the fish-hunting Conus geographus and the mollusc hunting Conus marmoreus, inject different venoms for defence and predation [ 7 ]. These distinct defensive and predatory venoms are injected using the same radula tooth envenomation apparatus but are differentially expressed from different sections of the venom duct [ 11 ]. Based on the venom duct analysis of C. geographus , defence-evoked venoms are typically expressed in the proximal section (near the venom bulb) and those used for predation in the distal section (near the proboscis) [ 7 ].…”
