First evidence of hybridization between endangered sterlets (Acipenser ruthenus) and exotic Siberian sturgeons (Acipenser baerii) in the Danube River (2009, unknown): “Allele lengths and distribution were determined for nine microsatellites: Afu19, Afu34, Afu39, Afu68 (May et al. 1997); Spl101, Spl105; Spl173 (McQuown et al. 2000); Aox23, Aox45 (King et al. 2001).”
Genetic Assessment of Lake Sturgeon Population Structure in the Laurentian Great Lakes (2008, unknown): “…tetranucleotide repeat motifs (AfuG9, AfuG56, AfuG63, AfuG74, AfuG112, AfuG122, AfuG160, AfuG195, AfuG204 [Welsh et al. 2003]; Afu68 [May et al. 1997]; Afu68b [McQuown et al. 2002]; Aox27 [King et al. 2001]; Spl120 [McQuown et al. 2000]) were amplified using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR).”
Genetic Population Structure of Remnant Lake Sturgeon Populations in the Upper Great Lakes Basin (2006, background): “Recently, polymorphic microsatellite markers have been shown to be an effective means for assessing sturgeon population structure (May et al. 1997; McQuown et al. 2000, 2002; Welsh et al. 2003).”
