Exploring the Expression of Cardiac Regulators in a Vertebrate Extremophile: The Cichlid Fish <i>Oreochromis (Alcolapia) alcalica</i>

Although it is widely accepted that the cellular and molecular mechanisms of vertebrate cardiac development are evolutionarily conserved, this is on the basis of data from only a few model organisms suited to laboratory studies. Here, we investigate gene expression during cardiac development in the...
