| Abstract: | In 1996,the journal Development published a special issue on zebrafish solely focusing on characterization of dozens of phenotypic mutants chosen from hundreds of mutants identified through chemical (ENU) mutagenesis by two zebrafish groups in Tübingen and Boston.This milestone formally catapulted zebrafish to a league of genetically tractable model organisms including Drosophila, Caenorhabditis elegans,yeast,Arabidopsis and mouse for the study of life sciences. |
