Within a day, some of the zebrafish larvae began to glow, indicating that the electric eel's pulses had indeed caused the fluorescent gene to be transferred into the zebrafish larvae. The ...
Scientists discover zebrafish hair cells can regenerate without cell division, challenging decades of textbook biology and ...
Microscopic predators and a fluorescent zebrafish embryo are on display in this year's Nikon Small World in Motion Video Competition.
Zebrafish lens epithelial cells were bioengineered to express fluorescent proteins mCherry-zGem and GFP-tagged histones. Early in the cell cycle, only GFP-histones are expressed, resulting in a ...
Zebrafish eyes have cone cells specialized to differentiate near-ultraviolet (V), blue (B), green (G) and red (R) wavelengths of light. Researchers visualized the regular, repeated patterns of ...
Now that fluorescent pets have been generated in farms for sale in pet stores, some animals have managed to make an escape. Genetically-modified zebrafish that glow red and green have been found in ...
Draper and Burgess are developing a strategy to do this — using genetically modified zebrafish that display their sex prominently, through color coding. These fish, developed by members of Draper ’s ...
The fluorescent introduction has begun in the southern hemisphere: presence and life-history strategies of the transgenic zebrafish Danio rerio (Cypriniformes: Danionidae) in Brazil, Studies on ...
