Abstract
Watanabe and Kondo question our conclusion that the current Turing-type model of color patterning in zebrafish requires modification. In addition to xanthophores and melanophores, iridophores are essential for stripe formation in the body, although not in the fins. A model of predictive value should accommodate the in vivo dynamics and interactions of all three chromatophore types in body stripe formation.
