Increased specificity can be achieved using intersectional genetic methods which restrict reporter expression to cells that co-express multiple drivers, such as Gal4 and Cre. To facilitate intersectional targeting in zebrafish, we have generated more than 50 new Cre lines, and co-registered brain expression images with the Zebrafish Brain Browser, a cellular resolution atlas of 264 transgenic lines. Lines labeling neurons of interest can be identified using a web-browser to perform a 3D spatial search (zbbrowser.com). This resource facilitates the design of intersectional genetic experiments and will advance a wide range of precision circuit-mapping studies.application/pdfenCreative Commons Attribution 4.0 Internationalin-vivogene-expressionoptical controlknock-ingal4dissectionsystemarchitecturepatternstoolsBrain-wide cellular resolution imaging of Cre transgenic zebrafish lines for functional circuit-mappingArticle - RefereedeLifehttps://doi.org/10.7554/eLife.42687830735129
