Overview of zebrafish heart development. By 14 hpf, cardiac progenitors have emerged from the anterior lateral plate mesoderm. These cardiac precursors migrate and fuse at the midline to form a cone structure by 19 hpf. After one day of development, a beating linear heart tube has formed to propel circulation through the body. Cardiac chambers are clearly demarcated and looping has completed after two days of development.VM, ventricle myocardium; AM, atrium myocardium; EC, endocardium; (upper panel) stage of development and hour postfertalisation, hpf, and (lower panel) genes that regulate the developmental processes.
