Traditionally marker-based approaches are used to define haematopoietic cell type or state. Here, the authors use single-cell RNA-seq to establish a cellular hierarchy of lineage development in zebrafish haematopoiesis, and propose a refined model of developmental progression of haematopoietic cells.
