Rapid molecular diversification and homogenization of clustered major ampullate silk genes in Argiope garden spiders

The evolutionary diversification of orb-web weaving spiders is closely tied to the mechanical performance of dragline silk. This proteinaceous fiber provides the primary structural framework of orb web architecture, and its extraordinary toughness allows these structures to absorb the high energy of...
