While nanoparticles occur naturally in the environment and have been intentionally used for
centuries, the production and use of engineered nanoparticles has seen a recent spike …

A great deal of information is known regarding the process of sex differentiation in fish, and
the mechanisms involved in primary sex determination are now beginning to be defined. A …

Advances in sequencing technology provide special opportunities for genotyping individuals
with speed and thrift, but the lack of software to automate the calling of tens of thousands of …

This review paper presents the overview of processes involved in transformation of organic-
coated silver nanoparticles (AgNPs) in biological systems and in the aquatic environment …

The basal position of fish in vertebrate phylogeny makes them very attractive for genomic
and functional comparative immunity studies. Adaptive immunity arose early in vertebrate …

In a large-scale screen, we isolated mutants displaying a specific visible phenotype in
embryos or early larvae of the zebrafish, Danio rerio. Males were mutagenized with …

Systematic genome-wide mutagenesis screens for embryonic phenotypes have been
instrumental in the understanding of invertebrate and plant development. Here, we report …

Sex determination can be robustly genetic, strongly environmental, or genetic subject to
environmental perturbation. The genetic basis of sex determination is unknown for zebrafish …

The understanding of vertebrate development has advanced considerably in recent years,
primarily due to the study of a few model organisms. The zebrafish, the newest of these …

<< Zebrafish hit the big time»: This title of a recent commentary in Science (Kahn, 1994)
reflects the growing importance of a new model organism for developmental research, the …
