Status, trends and management of sturgeon and paddlefish fisheries (2005, background): “…conservation, evolution and genetics (Birstein 1993; Dettlaff et al. 1993; Bemis et al. 1997; Bemis and Kynard 1997; Birstein et al. 1997a,c; Findeis 1997; Choudhury and Dick 1998; Billard and Lecointre 2001; Chebanov and Billard 2001; Fontana et al. 2001; Mims 2001; Van Winkle et al. 2002).”
Success of hatchery‐reared juvenile white sturgeon (Acipenser transmontanus) following release in the Kootenai River, Idaho, USA (2002, background): “However, the successful use of sturgeon hatcheries for conservation will depend on how well the hatchery-reared sturgeon can adapt to natural habitat conditions and how well the hatchery can preserve genetic diversity and key attributes of the natural population (Kincaid 1993; Secor et al. 2002).”
Ecology and biology of the lake sturgeon: a synthesis of current knowledge of a threatened North American Acipenseridae (2007, background): “Although recent studies have demonstrated the importance of using only native specimens in sturgeon stocking programs (Secor et al. 2002; Paragamin and Beamesderfer 2004), lack of suitable brood stock has prompted new interest in alternative stocking strategies.”
