Summary of results and model for stripe and interstripe patterning in zebrafish.
(A) Development of pigment pattern phenotypes in wild-type, bnc2 mutants, iridophore-ablated larvae (pnp4a:NTR), and ltk mutants. Blue circles, iridophores; orange circles, xanthophores; grey and black circles, melanophores.

A–A’) 22 dph, B–B’) 27 dph, C–C’) 33 dph, D–D’) 35 dph, E–E’) 41 dph, F–F’) 47 dph. At 22 dph, the pigmentation pattern of larvae from both dietary groups is similar, showing a very dense net of melanophores, xanthophores and leucophores that covers the ...

Mature Purple Body and Non-Purple Body male guppies differ from each other in several ways. Non-Purple males may have large numbers of xanthophores, erythrophores, and blue iridophores, in addition to the usual dendritic, corolla and punctate ...

The evolution of teleost coloration is strongly linked with the fish-specific genome duplication (FSGD). Sepiapterin reductase (Spr) is commonly required in pteridine pigment synthesis and two paralogs are found in teleosts.

IntroductionBody color is a prominent phenotypic trait and a significant economic characteristic in fish. While current research mainly examines the effects of genetic factors, less emphasis has been placed on the role of endogenous hormones in fish body

Animal body coloration is a complex trait resulting from the interplay of multiple mechanisms. While many studies address the functions of animal coloration, the mechanisms of colour production still remain unknown in most taxa.

The fresh water teleost, Oryzias latipes (the wild type) possesses in the dermis three kinds of chromatophores : the. melanophores, the xanthophores and the guanophores. The melanophores are the most conspicuous type of the chromatophores in the teleosts
