To unselect all the tree node selection. Use the following method of JTree.

public void clearSelection();

This works great for SINGLE_TREE_SELECTION mode.

Altenatively you could get the current selection of nodes using the following methods -

public int[] getSelectionRows() // row based

public TreePath[] getSelectionPaths() // tree path based

then remove from the retuned arrays the row index or TreePath that you want to unselect and the use the corresponding 'set' methods.
