Therefore, we have performed individual and group-wise swimming experiments to quantify swimming economy and to demonstrate the exercise effects on growth in adult zebrafish.9 p.application/pdfengcc-by (c) Palstra, A.P. et al., 2010http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/esPeix zebraModels animals en la investigacióCreixementMúsculsZebra danioAnimal models in researchGrowthMusclesEstablishing Zebrafish as a Novel Exercise Model: Swimming Economy, Swimming-enhanced Growth and Muscle Growth Marker Gene Expression info:eu-repo/semantics/article5826182013-05-14info:eu-repo/semantics/openAccess21217817
