The paper investigates the role of Gnrh in zebrafish reproduction, showing that waterborne Gnrh modulates the hypothalamic-pituitary axis and that gnrh-r3 knockout leads to infertility.

This study identifies a link between ARM-type fold domain loss in zebrafish Armc9, inflammation, and spinal curvature, suggesting a role in ciliary signaling and adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.

This study shows that allowing captive fish to regulate their temperature improves survival, physiology, and welfare, while lack of thermoregulation causes oxidative stress and DNA damage.

This paper identifies maternal-effect mutants in zebrafish that reveal molecular mechanisms controlling the oocyte-to-egg transition, focusing on yolk globule formation and protein processing.

The paper identifies four zebrafish maternal-effect mutants affecting egg-to-embryo transition processes and discovers a novel conserved gene, krang, involved in cortical granule function during egg activation.

This study identifies Taz as essential for micropylar cell specification and micropyle formation in zebrafish through genetic and molecular analysis.
