Research tools to investigate movements, migrations, and life history of sturgeons (Acipenseridae), with an emphasis on marine-oriented populations. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013Worldwide, sturgeons (Acipenseridae) are among the most endangered fishes due to habitat degradation, overfishing, and inherent life history characteristics (long life span, late maturation, and infrequent spawning).

Recent advances in sturgeon nutrition. [PDF]
Animal Nutrition, 2017Sturgeons 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.

Evolution of Polyploidy and Functional Diploidization in Sturgeons: Microsatellite Analysis in 10 Sturgeon Species [PDF]
Journal of Heredity, 2014Sturgeons (family Acipenseridae) are one of the most endangered groups of animals. Two hundred million years of evolution and multiple ploidy levels make this group a unique subject for studying the evolution of polyploidy in animals. As most sturgeon species have gone through significant functional diploidization, 2 scales of ploidy levels can be ...

Innate immune and chronic heat stress responses in sturgeons: Advances and insights from studies on Russian sturgeons [PDF]
Fish and Shellfish Immunology Reports, 2023Chronic stress deteriorates the immune function of fish, thereby increasing their vulnerability to infections. However, the molecular and cellular mechanisms underlying stress-mediated immunosuppression and infection susceptibility in fish remain largely
