Abstract The chemical compositions of tea (Camellia sinensis) are affected by numerous factors, such as cultivar, climate,
leaf position, and cultivation pattern. However, under the same conditions, the chemical compositions are mainly
determined by varieties. Therefore, we investigated the genetic diversity of chemical compositions of tea tree
resources in China to screen excellent germplasm resources. Three chemical compositions index (including chlorophyll index, flavonoid index, and anthocyanin index) and the nitrogen balance index of tea leaves were measured
in 102 tea germplasms planted in Chinese Tea Plants Improved Variety Germplasm Resources Nursery
