Abstract
Considering longing term oocyte maturation in sturgeon; therefore, several managements, nutritional strategies and endocrine manipulation of the reproductive system are used to induce sexual maturity. Several studies have been carried out regarding to the reduction of sturgeon sexual maturity under culture conditions in terms of environmental, physiological and nutritional in inside and outside of Iran in recent years. Some of them could be the use of heating systems, using water holes and rivers at the same time, the addition of organic and inorganic minerals and supplements in diet, the use of vitamins C and E in fish diets, using food sources containing unsaturated fatty acids and essential amino acids, using of soybean meal in diets female, hybrid, use of hormones estradiol in the diet, the use of phytoestrogens (plant like - hormones) in the diet sturgeon and so on. According to analysis conducted to compare and analyzing the results of the studies, using environmental management and nutritional strategies and simultaneously using some additives in diet to accelerate growth promoting reproductive and sexual maturity in various species farmed sturgeon is suggested.
