Microbiome analysis reveals microecological advantages of emerging ditchless rice-crayfish co-culture mode.

ABSTRACT: Ditchless rice-crayfish co-culture is an emerging model of rice-crayfish farming that circumvents the potential hazards of digging ditches in traditional rice-crayfish farming. However, due to the complex interactions among crayfish, ambient microbiota, and environmental variables, it is necessary to assess the differences in bacterial structure between ditchless and traditional rice-crayfish culture. In this study, the crayfish culture area in the Sichuan basin was selected as the study area, and the bacterial communities of two rice-crayfish culture systems were compared by high-throughput sequencing of 16S rDNA. The results showed that the ditchless system had lower water depth, higher dissolved oxygen, lower total ammonia nitrogen and lower morbidity. There are intuitive differences in
