Recent advances in sturgeon nutrition. [PDF]
Sturgeons are fish species of biological and economical importance, and most of them are endangered, vulnerable or rare because of their large size, late sexual maturity, long period between spawning, and longevity.

Bony fish genomes: Status and gaps
Abstract Bony fish constitute an exceptionally species‐rich group of aquatic vertebrates, comprising more than 95% of all living fish. The adaptive processes on the diversity of environments they inhabit make them a highly diverse group from taxonomic, morphological and evolutionary standpoints.

Nitrogenous compounds and oxygen concentration as the key density dependent factors to optimize growth of beluga, Huso huso (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Acipenseridae), in circular fiberglass tanks [PDF]
Background. Beluga, Huso huso, known also as the great sturgeon, is a valuable fish in terms of meat and caviar production. It has been implicated that intensive fish culture is a major culprit for deterioration of water quality through metabolic ...

ABSTRACT Antimicrobial drugs are commonly used for the treatment of bacterial diseases in cobia (Rachycentron canadum), but information regarding the rationale of their therapeutic use, such as pharmacokinetics (PK), optimal dosages, and withdrawal time (WDT) in this species is very rare.

A comparison of methods for determining ploidy in white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) [PDF]
Release of sturgeon with abnormal ploidy into the wild may result in reduced fitness due to lowered fertility in the F2 and subsequent generations. Further, there is evidence that ploidy affects reproductive development and caviar yield.

Global Patterns and Gaps in Research on Salinity Tolerance of Inland Fishes
ABSTRACT Freshwater salinization is an emerging threat impacting approximately one‐third of the world's freshwater bodies. However, the salinity tolerance of many inland fishes remains understudied, despite being a crucial factor in determining species distributions and fitness.

Complete Mitogenome of the Russian Sturgeon Acipenser gueldenstaedtii (Acipenseriformes; Acipenseridae) [PDF]
Sturgeons and paddlefishes are frequently referred to as 'living fossils' among the actionpterygian lineage. They are increasingly facing threats to their existence because of various anthropogenic pressures. In this study, we present the complete mitogenome sequence of the Russian sturgeon Acipenser gueldenstaedtii (Acipenseriformes; Acipenseridae ...

Dam Submergence Flows: An Environmental Flow Prescription Designed to Aid Migratory Fish Passage
ABSTRACT As part of a holistic ecosystem‐focused set of unified flow prescriptions, natural spring flood events were enhanced with releases from an upstream reservoir on the Cape Fear River in North Carolina (USA) to submerge a series of low‐use, low‐head lock‐and‐dam structures for anadromous fish to move upstream.

Karyological study in backcross hybrids between the sterlet, Acipenser ruthenus, and kaluga, A. dauricus (Actinopterygii: Acipenseriformes: Acipenseridae): A. ruthenus × (A. ruthenus × A. dauricus) and A. dauricus × (A. ruthenus × A. dauricus) [PDF]
Background. Acipenserid fishes may be divided into three groups in terms of their ploidy levels: 1) 120-chromosomes, 2) 250–270-chromosomes, and 3) about 370-chromosomes.
