Abstract: Divisions of 199 loquat [Eriobotrya japonica（Thunb.）Lindl.] genetic resources and 86 germplasm characters were investigated in the resources of Fuzhou National Fruit Germplasm. Q cluster analysis showed that 199 loquat germplasm resources were seperated into cultivar and wild germplasm when L = 87.31；Five groups were seperated when L = 34.92，the germplasm resources in the same group were most came from the same origin region showing the nearest genetic relationship. R cluster analysis showed 86 characters closely related were significantly clustered into 3 groups. Principal component analysis suggested that，86 characters can be simplified to 28 main factors，the cumulative contribution rate of 74.7%，and the relatively large influence of 58 characters based on the amount of 28 factors loading.

Key words: Eriobotrya japonica, germplasm, numerical classification, cluster analysis, principal component analysis
