The immune system of sturgeons and paddlefish (Acipenseriformes): a review with new data from a chromosome‐scale sturgeon genome [PDF]

open access: hybridReviews in Aquaculture, 2021
Sturgeon immunity is relevant for basic evolutionary and applied research, including caviar- and meat-producing aquaculture, protection of wild sturgeons and their re-introduction through conservation aquaculture.

Research Tools to Investigate Movements, Migrations, and Life History of Sturgeons (Acipenseridae), with an Emphasis on Marine-Oriented Populations [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2013
Worldwide, 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).

Heat Stress Decreases Intestinal Physiological Function and Facilitates the Proliferation of Harmful Intestinal Microbiota in Sturgeons

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
Heat is a common source of stress in aquatic environments and can alter the physiological and metabolic functions of aquatic animals, especially their intestinal function.

Artificial whole genome duplication in paleopolyploid sturgeons yields highest documented chromosome number in vertebrates

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
Critically endangered sturgeons, having undergone three whole genome duplication events, represent an exceptional example of ploidy plasticity in vertebrates. Three extant ploidy groups, combined with autopolyploidization, interspecific hybridization and

Nuclear DNA markers for identification of Beluga and Sterlet sturgeons and their interspecific Bester hybrid

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Sturgeons (Acipenseriformes) are among the most endangered species in the world due to fragmentation and destruction of their natural habitats and to overexploitation, mainly for highly priced caviar.

Identification of Hybrid Sturgeon (Acipenser baerii × Acipenser schrenckii) from Their Parents Using Germplasm [PDF]

open access: yesAnimals
The hybrid sturgeon Acipenser baerii × A. schrenckii is the most widely cultured commercial sturgeon in China. However, its morphological similarity to the parental species frequently leads to misuse of germplasm in the breeding process, resulting in a ...

The Origin And Migration Of Primordial Germ Cells In Sturgeons

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Primordial germ cells (PGCs) arise elsewhere in the embryo and migrate into developing gonadal ridges during embryonic development. In several model animals, formation and migration patterns of PGCs have been studied, and it is known that these patterns ...

Innate immune and chronic heat stress responses in sturgeons: Advances and insights from studies on Russian sturgeons [PDF]

open access: yesFish and Shellfish Immunology Reports, 2023
Chronic 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

Natural infection of hybrid sturgeon (Acipenser baerii♀×Acipenser schrenckii♂) with Nocardia seriolae and white sturgeon iridovirus: pathological and transcriptomic analyses [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology
IntroductionIn August 2023, hybrid sturgeons (Acipenser baerii♀×Acipenser schrenckii♂) cultured in Sichuan, China, showed infectious disease symptoms, including ulcers, liver and spleen nodules, and high mortality rates.MethodsPathogenic bacteria were ...

Nuclear Markers of Danube Sturgeons Hybridization

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2011
Acipenseriformes are composed of 25 sturgeon species and two paddlefish species distributed exclusively in the northern hemisphere. The Danube River and the Black Sea were originally inhabited by six sturgeon species but two are extinct and only four are
