Besides, we conducted Pearson correlation analysis and Canonical ranking analysis between phytoplankton and water environmental factors. Results unveiled a total of 6 phyla 79 species of phytoplankton, mainly belongs to Bacillariophyta and Cyanophyta. The average density of phytoplankton at each sampling point was 71.66×104 ind./L. Canonical analysis indicated that temperature, chemical oxygen demand, permanganate index, ammonia nitrogen, total nitrogen and dissolved oxygen were major factors affecting the phytoplankton community structure in the source region of the Yangtze River. %U http://ckyyb.crsri.cn/EN/10.11988/ckyyb.20191167
