The paper is devoted to the study of deformations of harmonic maps. Concretely, the author considers infinitesimal harmonic deformations of Clifford tori in the 3-sphere, which are important examples of harmonic maps of \(T^2\) into \(S^3\). In this paper, it is proved that except for two cases all infinitesismal harmonic deformations are integrable, that is, they generate harmonic deformations.
