Abstract excerpt
We present a model to explain pigment cell pattern formation in the late larval stages of zebrafish, Danio rerio, and its mutants, based on new time sequence experimental data. The model stresses the importance of differential intercellular adhesion and the mechanisms of stem cell regulation to explain pigment pattern formation in zebrafish. All interactions included in the model are local in contrast to the...
