Environmental DNA(eDNA), a new tool for monitoring the biodiversity of aquatic ecosystems, is able to analyze characteristics of biodiversity from a microscopic perspective. Based on eDNA data collected from the Weihe River, diversity indexes, non-metric multidimensional scaling, cluster analysis, and correlation network analysis were employed to explore the diversity and community structure of zooplankton focusing on the niche differentiation of keystone species and environmental adaptability. The eDNA approach identified three types of zooplankton including Rotifera, Cladocera, and Copepoda, among which the dominant species was .
