Effects of Different River Crab <i>Eriocheir sinensis</i> Polyculture Practices on Bacterial, Fungal and Protist Communities in Pond Water.

ABSTRACT: Microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and protists, are key drivers in aquatic ecosystems, maintaining ecological balance and normal material circulation, playing vital roles in ecosystem functions and biogeochemical processes. To evaluate the environmental impact of different river crab polyculture practices, we set up two different river crab (Eriocheir sinensis) polyculture practices: one where river crabs were cultured with mandarin fish (Siniperca chuatsi), silver carp (Hypophthalmichthys molitrix), and freshwater fish stone moroko (Pseudorasbora parva), and another where river crabs were cultured just with mandarin fish and silver carp. These two polyculture practices were referred to as PC and MC, respectively. We analyzed the water bacterial, fungal
