The aim of this study was to conduct an analysis long‐term changes in the number sturgeon populations and its relationship with fishing regime current state Ural River basin, as well develop measures for conservation restoration their resources. Discussion. Six species inhabit waters basin: Huso huso Linnaeus, 1758; Acipenser gueldenstaedtii Brandt & Ratzeburg, 1833; persicus Borodin, ...

Abstract Across the process of domestication, human selection produces changes in target attributes as well that are not necessarily desired by humans due to pleiotropic or linked genes. In this paper we addressed, correlated between genetic diversity, damage level, defense mechanisms (resistance and tolerance), fitness domestication Stenocereus pruinosus (Otto ex Pfeiff.) Buxbaum stellatus (Pf...

Population genetic structure of stellate sturgeon (Acipenser stellatus) in 197 adult specimens from four fishery regions along the Iranian coastline of the southern Caspian Sea was investigated using microsatellite markers. Out of 15 microsatellite primers, 11 loci were produced, in which 10 of them were polymorphic and 1 was monomorph. Totally, 184 alleles were identified and on average 13.1 a...
