Fish exhibit different muscle structures and growth characteristics compared with mammals. We used a spatial transcriptomics approach and examined myotomal muscle sections from zebrafish. Adult muscles were divided into eight regions according to spatial gene expression characteristics. Slow muscle was located in the wedge-shaped region near the lateral line and at the base of the dorsal fin, intermediate muscle was located in a ribbon-shaped region adjacent to slow muscle, and fast muscle was located in the deep region of the trunk, surrounded by intermediate muscle; the interior of fast muscle was further divided into 6 parts by their transcriptomic features. Combined analysis of adult and larval data revealed that adult muscles contain specific regions similar to larval muscles. These regions showed active myogenesis and a high expression of genes associated with muscle hyperplasia. This is the first study to apply spatial transcriptomics to fish myotomal muscle structure and growth.
