“…In fact, it has been used for experiments in different fields and bears the advantage of being a vigorous, clonable and eurytopic organism (Vogt, 2008(Vogt, , 2017Vogt et al, 2015). The zebrafish (Danio rerio) seems also to be a suitable vertebrate model for epigenetic research, particularly in development and disease studies (Detrich, Westerfield, & Zon, 2016; Martinez-Sales, Garc ıa-Xim enez, & Espin os, 2015; Mudbhary, & Sadler, 2011) although necessarily more representative of tropical ecosystems. This advanced position of zebrafish is unquestionably sustained by its representative use both in (eco)toxicological and biomedical research (e.g., Dai et al, 2014;Szabo et al, 2017), but its representativeness as a model in ecology and evolution can be challenged (Parichy, 2015).…”
