On the basis of the quantum-statistical formulation of electronic transport, we calculate the electric and thermal conductivities of plasmas in a wide range of densities and temperatures where it is essential to take into account the varied degrees of electron degeneracy and local-field corrections describing the strong Coulomb-coupling effects. The physical implications of the results are investigated through comparison with other theories and experiments. For utility in the practical applications, we derive the analytic formulas parametrizing the computed results accurately for the generalized Coulomb logarithms appearing in those conductivities.
