Abstract
20 dominant species in Huangfuchuan watershed were analysed by X2 test,Pearson's correlation coefficient and Spearman's rank correlation coefficient test.The results indicated that:positive association coefficients of 31 species-pairs for the X2 test were significant(p0.05) or highly significant(p0.01),and negative association coefficients were significant or highly significant in 27 other species-pairs;In Pearson′s correlation coefficient test,16 species-pairs had positive relationship,and 13 species-pairs had negative relationship;In spearman′s rank correlation coefficient test,there were positive relationship between 36 species-pairs and negative relationship between 27 species-pairs.The results showed that dominant species have interspecific relationships and independent distribution pattern.Based on the results,20 species in the community were divided into three ecological groups.
