Cardiac and metabolic physiology of early larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) reflects parental swimming stamina (open access)

Cardiac and metabolic physiology of early larval zebrafish (Danio rerio) reflects parental swimming stamina

Article describes experiment in which mature adult zebrafish (Danio rerio) were subjected to a swimming performance test that allowed separation into low swimming stamina or high swimming stamina groups in order to determine if inherited traits that support enhanced swimming stamina in offspring appear only in juveniles and/or adults, or if these traits actually appear earlier in the morphologically quite different larvae.
