Fish in the Yong River basin have been significantly impacted by pollution, habitat modification and overfishing. In order to facilitate recovery of freshwater biodiversity, a fishing ban has implemented since 2022. However, high level human activity along waterways poses significant challenge monitoring fish biodiversity using established methods. It is essential, therefore, effective tools assess effectiveness policy. this study, environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding was employed species across five river sections October Additionally, we checked results against gear (drift gillnets ground cages) surveys historical records. A total twenty-two were found from eDNA metabarcoding, fourteen via fishing, only two both The most dominant identified Alburnus mossulensis, present all sections. decline observed whole basin, with difference community composition Upper Yao (UYAR) (YOR). Moreover, detected potentially invasive consistent their geographic distribution. Overall, study provide snapshot current offering baseline data for future evaluations policies ecosystem.

ABSTRACT Both environmental DNA (eDNA) and RNA (eRNA) have been widely adopted for biodiversity assessment. While eDNA often persists longer in environments, eRNA offers a more current view of biological activities. In metabarcoding, extracted is reverse transcribed into complementary (cDNA) metabarcoding. However, the efficacy various transcription strategies has not evaluated. Here we compared recovery efficiency three strategies: random priming with hexamers, oligo(dT) taxa‐specific using Mifish‐U fish both high‐ low‐biodiversity regions. Our results demonstrate that significantly impact recovery. Random consistently detected highest number taxa low‐ high‐biodiversity areas, performed comparably to hexamers; however, regions, hexamers outperformed oligo(dT), particularly recovering rare taxa. was comparable other high‐abundance taxa, it less effective thus limiting its utility comprehensive These differences are largely due multiple binding sites fewer or absent primers under high degradation. Combining improved recovery, especially low‐abundance species, supporting best practice eukaryotes. For prokaryotes genes lacking polyadenylation, favoured over taxa‐ gene‐specific priming. Collectively, these findings underscore critical importance selecting appropriate significant implications monitoring conservation efforts.

ABSTRACT There are numerous downsides and risks associated with electrofishing; hence, environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding is becoming increasingly common in aquatic ecological studies. Generally, researchers agree that eDNA more sensitive than electrofishing, better at detecting rare species. As predatory species tend to be rarer prey species, should hypothetically detect predator electrofishing. Instead of supporting the notion must replace or electrofishing display same results, current study aims establish strengths weaknesses when compared data were collected on three sampling dates four experimental sites. A RV coefficient analysis confirmed (RV = 0.395, p 0.057) statistically different from data. paired Wilcoxon signed rank test revealed collection techniques ( 0.041). When was conducted for a significant difference did not occur 0.661). Overall, results suggest does as due higher rates. The combined use alongside can help mitigate electrofishing's bias against while address reliability concerns eDNA. This collaborative approach ultimately enhances accuracy fish community assessments.
