Zebrafish
The zebrafish (''Danio rerio'') is a tropical freshwater fish belonging to the minnow family (Cyprinidae) of the order Cypriniformes. Native to the Himalayan region, it is a popular aquarium fish, frequently sold under the trade name zebra danio.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Zebra Danio )〕 The zebrafish is also an important and widely-used vertebrate model organism in scientific research, and was the first vertebrate to be cloned.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=In Memory of George Streisinger, "Founding Father" of Zebrafish Developmental and Genetic Research )〕 It is particularly notable for its regenerative abilities,〔 and has been modified by researchers to produce several transgenic strains.〔〔〔
== Taxonomy ==
The zebrafish is a derived member of the genus ''Danio'', of the family Cyprinidae. It has a sister-group relationship with ''Danio kyathit''. Zebrafish are also closely related to the genus ''Devario'', as demonstrated by a phylogenetic tree of close species. The zebrafish was referred to in scientific literature as ''Brachydanio rerio'' for many years until its reassignment to the genus ''Danio''.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://zfin.org/zf_info/zfbook/zfbk.html )〕
