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]
Acta Ichthyologica et Piscatoria, 2014 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.

Biological Reviews, Volume 101, Issue 3, Page 1406-1462, June 2026.ABSTRACT Oropharyngeal food processing exhibits a remarkable diversity among vertebrates, reflecting the evolution of specialised ‘processing centres’ associated with the mandibular, hyoid, and branchial arches. Although studies have detailed various food‐processing strategies and mechanisms across vertebrates, a coherent and comprehensive terminology ...

Global Patterns and Gaps in Research on Salinity Tolerance of Inland Fishes
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 2, Page 400-411, March 2026.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.

Suspension and optical properties of the crystalline lens in the eyes of basal vertebrates.
, 2014 We have investigated the apparatus suspending the crystalline lens in the eyes of basal vertebrates. Data are presented for Holocephali (Chondrichthyes) and the actinopterygians Polypteriformes, Polyodontidae (Acipenseriformes), Lepisosteiformes ...

Dam Submergence Flows: An Environmental Flow Prescription Designed to Aid Migratory Fish Passage
River Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 1, Page 19-29, January 2026.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.
