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 …

In a screen for early developmental mutants of the zebrafish, we have identified mutations
specifically affecting the internal organs. We identified 53 mutations affecting the …

The initial migration of motor growth cones from the spinal cord into the periphery requires
extrinsic cues, yet their identities are largely unknown. In zebrafish diwanka mutants, motor …

Zebrafish embryos and larvae have stage-specific patterns of motility or locomotion. Two
embryonic structures accomplish this behavior: the central nervous system (CNS) and skeletal …

Somitogenesis is the basis of segmentation of the mesoderm in the trunk and tail of
vertebrate embryos. Two groups of mutants with defects in this patterning process have been …

Neural crest development involves cell-fate specification, proliferation, patterned cell
migration, survival and differentiation. Zebrafish neural crest derivatives include three distinct …

Over the past decade, the zebrafish has become an important model organism for biological
research. In recent years, more than 1800 zebrafish mutants have been identified, providing …

We identified 6 genes that are essential for specifying ventral regions of the early zebrafish
embryo. Mutations in these genes cause an expansion of structures normally derived from …

… Burgess, Michael Granato; Modulation of locomotor activity in larval zebrafish during light
adaptation. J Exp Biol 15 July 2007; 210 (14): 2526–2539. doi: https://doi.org/10.1242/jeb.…

Control of behavior in the natural environment where sensory stimuli are abundant requires
superfluous information to be ignored. In part, this is achieved through selective transmission…
