Epiboly, the thinning and spreading of blastoderm over the yolk cells, is the first morphogenetic movement in zebrafish. Studies of zebrafish epiboly have provided insights into basic cellular properties and mechanisms of morphogenesis that are widely used in animal development (Lepage and Bruce, 2010).
