个体发育的韦伯装置在斑马鱼，Danio rerio，使用透明和染色标本和组织学检查。超过300个人从四个独立的斑马鱼谱系，范围从3到28分钟TL的大小，进行了研究。结果提供了一个基本的了解野生型斑马鱼的韦伯器的发展。我们的研究结果，结合那些已经发表的，指出大量的变化，在发展中的Weberian设备之间otopterians和新的解释的同源性，某些听小骨（如tripus和屏）。各种韦伯小骨之间的同源性的假设被认为是在理解ostarioprophans鱼类的声音传输的进化的重要一步。(C)2004年，伦敦林奈学会。
The ontogeny of the Weberian apparatus was examined in the zebrafish, Danio rerio, using both cleared and stained specimens and histology. Over 300 individuals from four independent zebrafish lineages, ranging in size from 3 to 28 min TL, were examined for this study. Results provide a basic understanding of the development of the Weberian apparatus in the wild-type zebrafish. Our results, in conjunction with those already published, point to substantial variation in the development of the Weberian apparatus among otophysans and new interpretations of the homology of certain ossicles (e.g. tripus and claustrum). Hypotheses of homology among various Weberian ossicles are considered and represent an important step in understanding the evolution of sound transmission in ostariophysan fishes.
