Correlation of Eukaryotic Microalgae Genera with Environmental Parameters Among the 12 genera with the highest abundance screened for correlations with environmental parameters, the analysis revealed that Chaetocerps showed a significant positive correlation with temperature ( p < 0.05); Bathycoccus showed a significant positive correlation with NO 2 − and SiO 3 2− ( p < 0.05), and a highly significant negative correlation with temperature ( p < 0.01); Prasinophytae was significantly positively correlated with NH 4 + and NO 2 − ( p < 0.05), and highly significantly negatively correlated with temperature ( p < 0.01); Subclade_A and Trebouxiophyceae were both negatively correlated with temperature ( p < 0.05) ( Figure 6 ). 4.
