Characterization of Sox9 in European Atlantic sturgeon (Acipenser sturio).
The Sox9 gene of Acipenser sturio, one of the most primitive vertebrates, was analyzed. No sex-specific differences were observed. Sturgeon Sox9 consists of three exons and two introns with completely conserved exon-intron boundaries showing high levels of homology to other vertebrate Sox9 sequences, especially in the N-terminus region containing the HMG box. We found strong evidence for negati...
متن کاملExpression Patterns of Atlantic Sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus) During Embryonic Development
During teleost ontogeny the larval and embryonic stages are key stages, since failure during this period of tissue differentiation may cause malformations, developmental delays, poor growth, and massive mortalities. Despite the rapid advances in sequencing technologies, the molecular backgrounds of the development of economically important but endangered fish species like the Atlantic sturgeon ...
متن کاملCurrent Occurrence of the Atlantic Sturgeon Acipenser oxyrinchus in Northern Spain: A New Prospect for Sturgeon Conservation in Western Europe.
Acipenser oxyrinchus is considered extirpated in Europe, but numerous breeding populations still exist on the Atlantic coast of North America. An adult female A. oxyrinchus, 2500 mm total length and 120 kg wet weight, was accidentally fished on 24 November 2010 near the coast of Gijón, Asturias, Spain. The fish was identified by its morphological pattern as well as by mitochondrial and nuclear ...
متن کاملChanges in age composition and growth characteristics of Atlantic sturgeon (Acipenser oxyrinchus oxyrinchus) over 400 years.
Populations of sturgeon (Acipenseridae) have experienced global declines, and in some cases extirpation, during the past century. In the current era of climate change and over-harvesting of fishery resources, climate models, based on uncertain boundary conditions, are being used to predict future effects on the Earth's biota. A collection of approximately 400-year-old Atlantic sturgeon spines f...
متن کاملThe Kootenai River white sturgeon Acipenser transmontanus
is a landlocked population restricted to a 270 km stretch of the Kootenai River, which flows from western Montana through northern Idaho and into British Columbia. This population has shown an almost complete lack of natural juvenile recruitment since 1974. The total adult population in 1998 was estimated to be about 650 individuals and this fish is currently classified as endangered by the Ida...
