Zebrafish
The zebrafish is a member of the minnow family of fish. The zebrafish is a model organism used to study the development of vertebrates.
The Zebrafish
The zebrafish, Danio rerio, has become another popular "model" organism with which to study fundamental biological questions.

In a primary fish myoblast assay system, the effects of Shh were found to be insensitive to pertussis toxin (Norris et al. 2000), and the results of treating zebrafish embryos with the toxin are inconclusive (Hammerschmidt and McMahon 1998).

Model organisms for developmental biology include the round worm Caenorhabditis elegans,[38] the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster,[39] the zebrafish Danio rerio[40], the mouse Mus musculus,[41], and the weed Arabidopsis thaliana.
During the 1980s and 1990s geneticists made an even more surprising discovery: the same principles, and often the same genes, involved in development in model organisms (such as fruit flies and zebrafish) are also involved in controlling development ...
