Journal of Veterinary Research, 2020 White sturgeon iridovirus (WSIV) disease is caused by a virus of the eponymous family and is mostly triggered by stressful environmental conditions, i.e. high rearing density, excessive handling, or temporary loss of water.

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

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

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

Efficient Gene Transfer and Gene Editing in Sterlet (Acipenser ruthenus)
Frontiers 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]
Acta 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

Early evolution of the gular musculature and its innervation in ray‐finned fishes
The Anatomical Record, EarlyView.Abstract Gular muscles are an important but often overlooked component of cranial anatomy in bony fishes. They are located on the ventral surface of the head and are derived from the mandibular and hyoid arches. We present a comprehensive review of the gular musculature and its innervation across early diverging actinopterygian lineages. By integrating
