Spontaneous autopolyploidy in the Acipenseriformes, with recommendations for management [PDF]
Reviews in Fish Biology and Fisheries, 2021 AbstractSturgeon and paddlefishes (Acipenseriformes) are cultured worldwide for commercial and conservation purposes. Over the past decade, we have learned many sturgeon culture programs experience spontaneous autopolyploidy, or the generation of triploidy without management intervention.

Phylogenetic perspective on the relationships and evolutionary history of the Acipenseriformes
Genomics, 2020 The Acipenseriformes, as one of the earliest extant vertebrates, plays an important role in the evolution of fishes and even the whole vertebrates. Here we collected and analyzed all complete mitochondrial genomes of Acipenseriformes species. Phylogenetic analyses demonstrated that the polytomous branch included Acipenseridae and Polyodontidae formed ...
