Tetraodon genome confirms Takifugu findings : most fish are ancient polyploids [PDF]
, 2004 An evolutionary hypothesis suggested by studies of the genome of the tiger pufferfish Takifugu rubripes has now been confirmed by comparison with the genome of a close relative, the spotted green pufferfish Tetraodon nigroviridis.

Interspecific hybridization of sturgeon species affects differently their gonadal development
Czech Journal of Animal Science, 2018 Gonad development in fish is generally assumed to be negatively influenced by interspecific hybridization, resulting in sterility or sub-sterility. However, this is not the case in sturgeons (Acipenseridae), in which fertile hybrids are common.

Use of Ultrasound Imaging to Determine Sex of Shovelnose Sturgeon [PDF]
, 2004 During November 2002, 51 shovelnose sturgeon Scaphirhynchus platorynchus were sexed by ultrasound imaging using a portable ultrasonograph. We identified males with 96% accuracy (N = 25) and females with 80% accuracy (N = 25); one hermaphroditic ...

Environmental DNA Reveals the Fish Community Structure Exhibited Instability and Trend of Miniaturization in the Xijiang River Basin of the Guizhou. [PDF]
Ecol EvolMonitoring of fish communities is of great significance for the management and sustainability of river ecosystems. Environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding technology has been demonstrated to be a highly sensitive biomonitoring tool. Nevertheless, it has seldom been tested in mountainous rivers within the geographically complex Karst region.
