Triploidy in zebrafish larvae: Effects on gene expression, cell size and cell number, growth, development and swimming performance.

There is renewed interest in the regulation and consequences of cell size adaptations in studies on understanding the ecophysiology of ectotherms. Here we test if induction of triploidy, which increases cell size in zebrafish (Danio rerio), makes for a good model system to study consequences of cell...
