Scientists say they have assembled a high-quality genome of the tiny animal, a species genetically similar to people. It should help disease research.Scientists have moved one step closer to understanding how genes drive human biology and disease — and they've done it by mapping the DNA of a tiny, decidedly non-human creature known as the zebra fish.
