Unique morphology and mechanical property of Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) fish skin. [PDF]

open access: yesIET Nanobiotechnol, 2020
Chinese sturgeon (Acipenser sinensis) fish skin is an excellent natural material with remarkable mechanical properties owing to the unique structures of the helical stacking fibres. In this work, the authors studied the potential role of the sturgeon fish skin in the protective function through testing and analysed the structural features and ...

Yangtze Dams Increasingly Threaten the Survival of the Chinese Sturgeon [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2018
Dams are considered to be a serious threat to migratory fish on a global scale. Most of the world's rivers have been dammed, including those containing hotspots of fish diversity [1-3]. The mechanism by which dams affect fish is unclear and has often led to an underestimation of their cumulative and far-reaching adverse effects.

The complete mitochondrial genome of Dabry’s sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2017
The complete mitochondrial genome of Dabry’s sturgeon (Acipenser dabryanus) was first determined in this study. The mitochondrial DNA is circular molecule (16,437 bp in length) with a typical vertebrate mitochondrial gene arrangement, including 13 ...
