Abstract:Seven families of Schima superba were introduced and cultivated in Taizi Mountain Forest Farm in Hubei Province,and the survival condition and early growth performance were analyzed to select suitable families for the local area.The results showed that there were significant difference among survival rates,preservation rates,diameter at breast height(DBH),and crown width of each family.In addition,there was an extremely significant correlation among DBH,tree height,and crown width.The results also indicated that the most suitable family for Taizi Mountain Forest Farm was A06,followed by A04,A02,and A08 which should be further studied and popularized.
