The 10th International Symposium on Sturgeon (ISS10)

 Diseases occur frequently during sturgeon farming, primarily including viral, bacterial, and parasitic diseases. As early as the 1990s, over ten viruses, such as sturgeon nucleocytoplasmic large DNA virus, herpesvirus, and Acipenser transmontanus adenovirus 1, were successively reported in white sturgeon and paddlefish. However, viral diseases have rarely been reported in sturgeons within China. Diseases affecting sturgeon species in China are mainly bacterial, including sepsis caused by motile Aeromonas, enteritis caused by Streptococcus, granulomas caused by Mycobacterium, red mouth disease and enteritis caused by Yersinia, as well as diseases caused by other pathogens. Common prevention and treatment methods typically involve incorporating probiotics (e.g., Bacillus subtilis, Pseudobacillus nanhaiensis) into feed, using antimicrobial peptides, inactivated vaccines, and antibiotics. It is recommended to strengthen research and development of probiotics and inactivated vaccines to support green and healthy aquaculture practices for the sturgeon industry.
