In recent years, the zebrafish, Danio rerio has become a valuable model for the study of the development of vertebrate paired appendages and several large-scale mutagenesis screens have identified novel fin mutants. This review summarizes recent advances in research into zebrafish paired fin development and highlights features that are shared with and distinct from limb development in other main animal models.en600 - Technology::610 - Medicine & healtharticle10.7892/boris.796251758732710.1111/j.1440-169X.2007.00942.x
