Using eDNA metabarcoding, we identified 61 fish species in the Jinsha river during the early stage of the Yangtze river fishing ban. Fish diversity showed seasonal and regional variation, with Cypriniformes as the dominant group. Key environmental factors like temperature and dissolved oxygen were closely linked to diversity patterns.

Improving Whole Biodiversity Monitoring and Discovery With Environmental DNA Metagenomics
ABSTRACT Environmental DNA (eDNA) metagenomics sequences all DNA molecules present in environmental samples and has the potential of identifying virtually any organism from which they are derived. However, due to unacceptable levels of false positives and negatives, this approach is underexplored as a tool for biodiversity monitoring across the tree of
