Embryogram allows stress measurements during migration of the lateral line primordium in zebrafish embryos.

The lateral line is a sensory system that is involved in detecting water flow and pressure gradients around the fish. During development, the primordium migrates on a basement membrane from the head towards the tail of the fish and buds off groups of cells at regular intervals. These groups of cells then form the lateral line organs.
