“…Only about one-third of caged areas is approved for artificially fed fish [96]. In spite of these restrictions, fish yields from aquaculture have risen substantially since 1998 [47], and caged Kaluga sturgeon from Qiandao Lake is now the world's main source of caviar [97,98].…”

“…As mediated by Beijing, the first three-year pilot agreement relied on joint monitoring of four equally weighted indices, including TN, TP, ammonia N, and the permanganate index, which were combined into a single index of water quality [98,105,106]. If water quality monitored at the point where the Xin'an River crosses from Anhui into Zhejiang Province exceeded the baseline standard established prior to the implementation of the PES scheme, Anhui Province would receive 100 million yuan from Zhejiang Province, but if the opposite was true, Zhejiang Province would receive 100 million yuan from Anhui Province [94,99].…”

Rapid economic development and population growth in China’s Yangtze River Delta (YRD) are exerting significant environmental pressure on the region’s land and water, especially in hilly areas where many drinking water reservoirs have been constructed. These areas, which are characterized by steep slopes and thin soils, provide critical services, including flood control, water resource supply, food production, and recreational opportunities for nearby highly developed and heavily populated areas of the delta. We contrast two of these areas—the well-studied Tianmu Lake watershed and the much larger Qiandao Lake watershed. Both face similar challenges from nitrogen and phosphorus pollution due to rapid socio-economic development, but differences in watershed size and distinctions related to political boundaries influence the range of approaches available to maintain water quality. We review experiences of controlling nutrient pollution in these watersheds as case studies, and based on that information, propose an integrated framework to minimize nitrogen and phosphorus pollution in similarly challenged watersheds. The framework, which is designed to be generalizable rather than prescriptive, emphasizes source control, delivery interception, and fate management of nutrients.

“…Recirculating aquatic systems (RAS) are considered as the most environmentally friendly way of producing fish at a commercially viable level, and sturgeons are one of the species of interest to be reared under RAS conditions [ 3 ]. RAS have already been successfully applied in hatcheries designed to produce sturgeons for restocking [ 4 ]; however, they can also be attractive for intense sturgeon production to market size, especially in countries with strong environmental regulations, either on outlet water quality or on non-native species farming [ 5 ]. To date, however, there has been insufficient knowledge on the optimal conditions in terms of sturgeon RAS rearing, and general recommendations for sturgeon farming are often incomplete or inconsistent.…”

The aim of the study was to raise an issue concerning gonadal impairments in sturgeon reared in recirculating aquatic systems (RAS). In the present study, an in-depth histological evaluation in terms of gonadal pathologies was performed on over-4-year-old (1600 days post-hatching) Russian sturgeon (Acipenser gueldenstaedtii) reared under indoor RAS. A female-biased sex ratio, intersex occurrence, ovarian fat overgrowth, T-cell infiltration and follicle atresia were the most commonly observed disorders in the analyzed gonads. The combined processes of oocyte autophagy and follicular cell apoptosis were engaged in follicular atresia; however, atretic follicles showed a varied morphology, whereas oogonia and oocytes in the early stages of meiosis, as well as spermatogonia, underwent degeneration by apoptosis. The most severe pathology was observed in females with abundant intra-ovarian fat deposition. The extremely fatty ovaries were noted to lose the majority of ovarian follicles, which directly leads to fish sterility. The identified impairments might be related to estrogenic endocrine disruption, as feminization and unspecific vitellogenin synthesis were detected, although the sources of the observed pathologies can be diverse. Therefore, the presented research lays the groundwork for further studies on reproductive disorders in this prized and endangered fish species.

“…The Siberian sturgeon, Acipenser baerii , is a non-teleost ray-finned fish (Actinopterygii) species of the order Acipenseriformes, which includes sturgeons and paddlefishes ( 1 ) and faces critical conservation problems ( 2 , 3 ). Siberian sturgeons from the easternmost of the three great Siberian rivers have been cultured in Europe since the early 1980s and this culture is now performed in 50 countries in the Northern and Southern Hemispheres ( 4 ). Its production remains on the craft scale with worldwide production of only 27 500 tons per year ( 4 ), as compared to industrial levels of salmonid and tilapia production at 3 281 100 and 5 977 000 tons per year, respectively ( 5 ).…”

Siberian sturgeon multi-tissue reference transcriptome database

Motivation: Siberian sturgeon is a long lived and late maturing fish farmed for caviar production in 50 countries. Functional genomics enable to find genes of interest for fish farming. In the absence of a reference genome, a reference transcriptome is very useful for sequencing based functional studies. Results: We present here a high-quality transcriptome assembly database built using RNA-seq reads coming from brain, pituitary, gonadal, liver, stomach, kidney, anterior kidney, heart, embryonic and pre-larval tissues. It will facilitate crucial research on topics such as puberty, reproduction, growth, food intake and immunology. This database represents a major contribution to the publicly available sturgeon transcriptome reference datasets. Availability: The database is publicly available at http://siberiansturgeontissuedb.sigenae.org Supplementary information: Supplementary data are available at Database online.
