The effects of different light regimes (24L: 0D, 150 lux, 12L: 12D, 300lux, 0L: 24D, 0 lux, and control treatment) on growth, melatonin concentration, and Insulin-like growth factors gene expression of Persian sturgeon (Acipenser persicus) embryos were evaluated. Four groups of Persian sturgeon eggs (450 g) were incubated in Youshchenkov incubators with three replications for each treatment. The experiment was conducted during an 8- day period of incubation. Growth rate, plasma melatonin levels, and IGF-growth factors were investigated at 1, 4, and 8 days post fertilization.  Results showed that higher mean weights growth were observed in fertilized eggs exposed to a 24L: 0D photoperiod with 150lux light intensity (p<0.05). The larval body length and hatching rate of fertilized eggs were significantly higher in embryos incubated at 12L: 12D with 300lux. The melatonin hormone level between sampling days and treatments were significantly different and it would be concluded that it may be related to the species. During the first-day post fertilization, the IGF-I and IGF-IR gene expression were significantly higher than other days. However, IGF-I and IGF-IR gene expression at different treatments showed no significant difference at day 4 and 8 post fertilization. According to the results, the stimulating role of IGF-I and IGF-IR gene expression in growth at the one-day post fertilization under different light regimes can be concluded. These findings suggest that the 12L:12D photoperiod with 300lux light intensity is the appropriate light regime for Persian sturgeon eggs incubation. The results of the present study would provide fundamental information for further use of light regimes during the early development of sturgeon larvae to optimize rearing protocols in sturgeon hatcheries.
