Mechanisms for carnivory in carnivorous plants have been proposed to arise from defence related mechanisms and several genes have been identified from proteomic analyses thus far. Carnivory confers the advantage of utilising prey as an additional nitrogen source in nutrient poor environments. Thus,...
