Homotypic cell competition regulates proliferation and tiling of zebrafish pigment cells during colour pattern formation
The adult striped pattern of zebrafish is composed of melanophores, iridophores and xanthophores arranged in superimposed layers in the skin. Previous studies have revealed that the assembly of pigment cells into stripes involves heterotypic interactions between all three chromatophore types. Here w...
