Zebrafish behavior: opportunities and challenges
MB Orger, GG de Polavieja - Annual review of neuroscience, 2017 - annualreviews.org
A great challenge in neuroscience is understanding how activity in the brain gives rise to
behavior. The zebrafish is an ideal vertebrate model to address this challenge, thanks to the …

Structure of the zebrafish locomotor repertoire revealed with unsupervised behavioral clustering
An important concept in ethology is that complex behaviors can be constructed from a set of
basic motor patterns. Identifying the set of patterns available to an animal is key to making …

Modulation of locomotor activity in larval zebrafish during light adaptation
HA Burgess, M Granato - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2007 - journals.biologists.com
The neural basis of behavioral choice in vertebrates remains largely unknown. Zebrafish
larvae have a defined locomotor repertoire as well as a simple nervous system and are …

[HTML][HTML] Whole-brain activity maps reveal stereotyped, distributed networks for visuomotor behavior
Most behaviors, even simple innate reflexes, are mediated by circuits of neurons spanning
areas throughout the brain. However, in most cases, the distribution and dynamics of firing …

Locomotor repertoire of the larval zebrafish: swimming, turning and prey capture
SA Budick, DM O'Malley - Journal of Experimental Biology, 2000 - journals.biologists.com
Larval zebrafish (Brachydanio rerio) are a popular model system because of their genetic
attributes, transparency and relative simplicity. They have approximately 200 neurons that …
