• Age/size effects on juvenile green sturgeon, Acipenser medirostris, oxygen consumption, growth, and osmoregulation in saline environments (2007, background): “Several reviews have noted that there appears to be three to four main life history strategies of sturgeons differentiated by whether adults remain in FW (potamodromous), migrate to some body of BW (FW amphidromous and brackish sea migrants), or migrate to full-strength oceanic SW (‡33&, anadromous;”
• Serum lipid, free fatty acid, and proteins in juvenile sturgeons: Acipenser persicus and Acipenser stellatus (2009, background): “Unfortunately, nowadays, these fishes have become an endangered species and listed as threatened, vulnerable, and endangered throughout their ranges (Asadi et al. 2006a; Moghim et al. 2002; Billard and Lecointre 2001).”
• Sturgeon aquaculture in China: progress, strategies and prospects assessed on the basis of nation-wide surveys (2007–2009) (2011, background): “The cryopreservation of sturgeon sperm is now possible with limited success (30% fertilization of eggs on average with an excess of sperm) (Billard and Lecointre, 2001).”
• Status, trends and management of sturgeon and paddlefish fisheries (2005, background): “…(migrating within freshwater) with all species reproducing in freshwater, spawning in habitats with hard substrates (e.g. gravel, cobbles, boulders) of varying depths (from a few to over 20 m) and current velocities (e.g. from 0.5 to 2.2 m s)1) (Bemis and Kynard 1997; Billard and Lecointre 2001).”
• The effects of dietary inactive brewer's yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae var. ellipsoideus on the growth, physiological responses and gut microbiota of juvenile beluga (Huso huso) (2011, background): “Culture of beluga sturgeon up to marketable size can help to reduce pressure on natural populations in the Caspian Sea and help to meet global needs for beluga meat and caviar (Billard and Lecointre, 2000; Bronzi et al., 1999; Ireland et al., 2002; Mohseni et al., 2008; Sudagar and Hoseinifar, 2005)”
• Status of Lake Sturgeon (Acipenser fulvescens Rafinesque 1817) in North America (2016, background): “Juveniles have rarely been found in velocities exceeding 0.7 m s 1 (Billard and Lecointre, 2001).”
