The paper establishes phiC31 integrase-based transgene landing sites in zebrafish, enabling efficient and reproducible transgenesis with 25-50% germline transmission efficiency.

The paper introduces next-generation transgenesis tools for zebrafish and other species, including vectors with fluorescent markers and promoters for specific tissue expression.

This study identifies Hand2 as a key regulator of mesothelium progenitors in zebrafish and shows its reactivation in mesothelioma, linking developmental processes to disease.

The paper compares zebrafish Switch reporter transgenes to identify those with optimal recombination efficiency and expression patterns for lineage labeling.

The paper identifies a conserved regulatory program driving lateral plate mesoderm emergence across chordates using zebrafish and comparative analysis.
