Do fish sleep? Even scientists have struggled to understand the process, but new research reveals how different species rest.

The researchers monitored the hatching and mortality rates of the larvae every 24 hours, for seven days. Zebrafish embryos ...

Scientists in Hyderabad identify new molecular mechanism for WLS protein regulation, crucial for organ development in vertebrates.

Scientists have shown that light pollution—especially light in the blue spectrum—can alter the behavior of fish after only a ...

Examples include zebrafish (Danio rerio), the fruit fly Drosophila melanogaster, and roundworms (Caenorhabditis elegans) - which are advantageous due to their small size, high fecundity, sophisticated ...

Here, this study investigated the neurotoxicology of environmentally relevant AgNPs with or without bovine serum albumin (BSA; a classical NOM) to zebrafish (Danio rerio) using visualized transgenic ...

This occurs naturally in some animals already, including Glass frogs (Hyalinobatrachium fleischmanni) and zebrafish (Danio rerio). One way this could be accomplished in non-transparent tissues is to ...

One advantage of this model is that around 70% of the genes found in zebrafish (Danio rerio) are also found in humans. The findings from the zebrafish model can therefore likely be transferred to ...

Breeding: Like most Danio species, sexually mature females are fatter. The females may also be paler in colour. It breeds in typical danio style and is said to be fairly easy, although the fry may be ...

D.rerio, which is only vaguely similar, has two pairs. A wide range of new Danio imports have started appearing recently. Keep an eye out for D.kyathit, which was described in 1998 (it's found around ...
