The seedling stage test on 55 open-pollinated families of plus trees of Betula luminifera H. Winkl. from Shaowu, Nanping and Wuping in Fujian Province was carried out in State-owned Forest Farm of Weimin, Shaowu. The genetic variations of Betula luminifera were studied, based on the investigation of 1-year-old seedling traits from different families. The results showed that there were abundant variations within the Betula luminifera and very significant differences among families in seedling height, diameter and lateral branch. The variations were mainly controlled by genetic factors. According to this analysis, 11 excellent families were tentatively selected, the average genetic gain of height and diameter were 18.72% and 10.44% respectively. The selection effect was very striking. The Shaowu region was probably a superior genetic resource area of Betula luminifera .
