The zebrafish (Danio rerio) has proven its worth as an excellent model system for the study
of vertebrate development. In 1996, in an issue of the journal Development, the results of the …

As the first draft of the human genome nears completion, we are faced with the challenge of
defining the functions of the 70,000–100,000 genes contained within the sequence. A …
