Behavioral visual responses of wild-type and hypopigmented zebrafish
Zebrafish possess three classes of chromatophores that include iridophores, melanophores, and xanthophores. Mutations that lack one or two classes of chromatophores have been isolated or genetically constructed. Using a behavioral assay based on visually mediated escape responses, we measured the visual response of fully and partially pigmented zebrafish. In zebrafish that lack iridophores (roy...

Systematic screening of behavioral responses in two zebrafish strains.
Wild-type (WT) zebrafish are commonly used in behavioral tests, but the term WT is not a precise description, and corresponds to many different strains (e.g., AB, TU, WIK, and others). Previous studies compared the physiological, behavioral, or metabolic characteristics of different zebrafish strains (indigenous WT populations versus laboratory WT strains). AB and TU are widely used, but at lea...
متن کاملNeuromuscular synaptogenesis in wild-type and mutant zebrafish.
Genetic screens for synaptogenesis mutants have been performed in many organisms, but few if any have simultaneously screened for defects in pre- and postsynaptic specializations. Here, we report the results of a small-scale genetic screen, the first in vertebrates, for defects in synaptogenesis. Using zebrafish as a model system, we identified seven mutants that affect different aspects of neu...
متن کاملBehavioural visual acuity of wild type and bcl2 transgenic mouse
Since the advent of gene manipulating techniques, it has become increasingly important to study the neural functional properties of the mouse. The bcl2 gene has a powerful inhibitory action on naturally occurring cell death. As a consequence the brain of bcl2 overexpressing mouse is 1.5 times bigger than the brain of a wild type animal and the retina has more than twice the ganglion cells than ...
