Evidence for a Slowed Rate of Molecular Evolution in the Order Acipenseriformes [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology and Evolution, 2002
A test of the hypothesis that the members of the order Acipenseriformes (sturgeons and paddlefishes) possess a slowed rate of molecular evolution was carried out by conducting relative-rate comparisons with representatives of four groups of teleost fishes (Cypriniformes, Elopomorpha, Salmonidae, and Percomorpha) using 21 nuclear or mitochondrial ...

Molecular analysis of phylogeographic subspecies in three Ponto-Caspian sturgeon species

open access: yesGenetics and Molecular Biology, 2014
Sturgeons (Order Acipenseriformes) represent an extremely valuable natural resource that is now facing depletion. In the current study we evaluate if the traditional classification in subspecies of Acipenser gueldenstaedtii, Acipenser stellatus and Huso ...

Detection of white sturgeon iridovirus (WSIV) in sturgeons (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Acipenseridae) from aquaculture facilities located in Poland, Germany, and Italy [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2019
Background. White sturgeon iridovirus (WSIV) is one of the most serious threats for sturgeon aquaculture as the mortality in juvenile individuals can reach 95%.

Moleсular-genetic markers in study of intra- and interspecific polymorphism of Acipenseriformes

open access: yes, 2010
 Uniqueness and high commercial value of relic group of sturgeon fishes stimulated researches of their genetic polymorphism. In the review the basic molekular-genetic markers used for an estimation of genetic variability are considered; their merits and ...

The Genetic Feasibility of Gonadal Development and Fertility in Polyodon-Acipenserid Interfamilial Hybrids: An Opinion on the Chromosomal Basis

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioscience-Scholar
Interfamilial hybridization between American paddlefish (Polyodon spathula) and Acipenserid (sturgeon) species produces viable hybrid offspring. However, the potential fertility of these hybrids is a critical issue for understanding sex determination ...

Efficient Gene Transfer and Gene Editing in Sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus)

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2018
The sturgeon (Acipenseriformes) is an important farmed species because of its economical value. However, neither gene transfer nor gene editing techniques have been established in sturgeon for molecular breeding and gene functional study until now.

The effect of short-term starvation on some physiological and morphological parameters in juvenile Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Acipenseridae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2013
Background. Fish may experience periods of food deprivation or starvation in nature and under culture conditions. Because of the wild  stock reduction of some sturgeon species, Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii Brandt, 1869, has been used as a

Dental development in the tropical gar (Atractosteus tropicus) and the evolution of vertebrate dentitions

open access: yesDevelopmental Dynamics, EarlyView.
Abstract Background Dentitions have diversified enormously during vertebrate evolution, involving reductions, modifications, or allocations to prey seizing and processing regions. A combination of ancient and novel features related to dental and oropharyngeal apparatuses is found in extant lineages of non‐teleost fishes, such as the gars.

Functional Adaptations for Load‐Bearing in a Dermal Bone: The Pectoral Fin Spine of the Russian Sturgeon (Huso Gueldenstaedtii)

open access: yesJournal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 10, October 2026.
The pectoral fin spine (PFS) of the sturgeon is a robust dermal skeletal element that extends laterally and is located on the leading edge of the pectoral fin. The PFS is a load‐bearing dermal bone composed of peripheral parallel‐fibered bone and dermal osteonal bone organized around an interconnected neurovascular network.
