More recently, since 1970, major contributions originated from teams in the USA, the EU, Japan and Iran. A rather good knowledge of the reproductive physiology of sturgeon is now available: gametogenesis, reproductive cycle, ovulation, spermiation and fertilization. The complete life cycle was obtained in captive conditions allowing the production of juveniles and caviar. %> http://jifro.ir/article-1-3177-en.pdf %P 1-20 %& 1 %! %9 Orginal research papers %L A-10-600-139 %+ %G eng %@ 1562-2916 %[ 2000
