| Abstract
|
:
|
Zebrafish are widely considered the best model for vertebrate development. The embryo is transparent, thereby enabling visualization and use of labeling and transgenic approaches. Moreover, because of the ease of inducing new mutations in zebrafish and similarity with the human genome, this organism may be used effectively for disease studies. For example, mutant zebrafish are being utilized for testing drugs that will combat a range of human diseases, from Alzheimer's and cancer to kidney failure and congenital heart disease. For the first time, this atlas provides the research community wit
