Highlights
Analysis of leukocyte and thrombocyte characteristics in Acipenser baerii, Acipenser stellatus and Huso huso sturgeons at the age of about 200 days kept under intensive breeding conditions is presented
The differential leukocyte count of studied fish species was of lymphocytic character (68.0-73.5% of lymphocytes), and the neutrophilic and eosinophilic granulocytes amounted to 21.8-25.1% and 3.0-4.6%, respectively
Significant (p< 0.05) differences were found between individual sturgeon species in morphometric characteristics of studied cells
Summary
J i r ásek : Characteristics of Leukocytes and Thrombocytes of Selected Sturgeon Species from Intensive Breeding. Analysis of leukocyte and thrombocyte characteristics in Acipenser baerii, Acipenser stellatus and Huso huso sturgeons at the age of about 200 days kept under intensive breeding conditions is presented. Significant (p< 0.05) differences were found between individual sturgeon species in morphometric characteristics of studied cells (i.e. thrombocytes, lymphocytes, neutrophilic and eosinophilic granulocytes). The highest values were found in Acipenser baerii These results are in good agreement with data on the ploidy in sturgeon species under study. The aim of our study was to evaluate interspecies differences in morphological characteristics of leukocytes and thrombocytes in selected sturgeon species (i.e. A_baerii, H. huso and A. stellatus) known for different numbers of chromosomes
