Biology and Culture of Sturgeon Acipenseriformes
Recent Advances in Aquaculture, 2019The annual world sturgeon catch has ranged from 20,000 to 40,000 metric tons during the past fifty years and, as such, has been less significant than the catch of many other commercial fisheries. However, because of the sturgeon’s high value as a food and game fish, this fishery has far exceeded the importance and monetary returns of many others.

Phylogeny of the Acipenseriformes: Cytogenetic and molecular approaches
Environmental Biology of Fishes, 1997The review of the data on karyology and DNA content in Acipenseriformes shows that both extant families, the Polyodontidae and Acipenseridae, originated from a tetraploid ancestor which probably had a karyotype consisting of 120 macro- and microchromosomes and DNA content of about 3.2–3.8 pg per nucleus.

Evolutionary plasticity of acipenseriform genomes
Chromosoma, 2016Acipenseriformes is an order of ray-finned fishes, comprising 27 extant species of sturgeons and paddlefishes inhabiting waters of the Northern Hemisphere. The order has a basal position within Actinopteri (ray-finned fish minus polypterids) and is characterized by many specific morphological and genomic features, including high diploid chromosome ...

Role of Paedomorphosis in the Emergence of the Skull Bauplan in Acipenseriformes (Actinopterygii)
Biology Bulletin Reviews, 2020Acipenseriformes (Actinopterygii) are commonly recognized as a sister group of Neopterygii. They represent the basal-most taxa of extant ray-finned fishes, along with Polypterus (Polypteriformes). This position on the cladogram determines the key importance of sturgeons for an understanding of the evolutionary history of actinopterygians, as well as ...

Sperm maturation in sturgeon (Actinopterygii, Acipenseriformes): A review.
Theriogenology, 2017The morphology of the reproductive system of acipenseriform fishes is quite different from that of teleostean species, but an associated unique physiological difference in male sturgeons was not discovered until recently; sperm of sturgeons passes through the kidneys then via Wolffian ducts into the environment rather that emptying directly through ...

Molecular biological study on hormones in Acipenseriformes
Hereditas (Beijing), 2011Sturgeons belong to the Acipenseriformes, which provide an ideal model for evolutionary studies due to their unique characters. At present, many species of Acipenseriformes are very rare and near extinct. It is urgent to protect these species. However, data on molecular mechanisms of their growth and reproduction regulation are still limited.
