Fish Species Diversity and Community Composition in Subtropical Estuaries: eDNA Analysis of Water Samples from Jiulong River-Xiamen Bay, China
This project aims to explore the fish species diversity and community composition in the subtropical estuarine waters of the Jiulong River-Xiamen Bay region in China using environmental DNA (eDNA) analysis. Water samples were collected from the estuary, and high-throughput sequencing technologies were employed to characterize the diversity of fish species present in the region. The results of this study will contribute to the broader understanding of aquatic biodiversity and support conservation and management efforts in subtropical estuarine ecosystems.
