Zebrafish as a model vertebrate for investigating chemical toxicity. (2005, neutral): “They were the first organism used to demonstrate Y-linked inheritance (Aida, 1921) and provided much more information as a developmental and genetic model system (reviews: Ishikawa, 2000; Wittbrodt et al., 2002).”
Zebrafish as a model organism for nutrition and growth: towards comparative studies of nutritional genomics applied to aquacultured fishes (2011, background): “Medaka, tolerate a wide range of salinities and temperatures (10–40 C), are small (3–4 cm), have eggs transparent, are easy to breed and with a generation interval time of 6–8 weeks (Wittbrodt et al. 2002).”
The aquarium hobby: can sinners become saints in freshwater fish conservation? (2016, background): “Likewise, other species originating from the aquarium trade that are easily maintained in captivity have also become popular in academic applications, such as the medaka (Oryzias latipes, Adrianichthyidae) (Tanaka et al. 2001; Wittbrodt et al. 2002).”
From 2R to 3R: evidence for a fish-specific genome duplication (FSGD). (2005, background): “Traditionally, cichlids and pufferfishes have been both placed in the superorder Percomorpha, fugu was removed here from the percomorpha to indicate the uncertainty in the relationships among these three taxa.”
