Various genetic and biochemical characteristics exist in tea plant cultivars, and they largely determine production suitability and tea quality. Here, we performed transcriptomic and metabolomic analyses of young shoots of seven tea cultivars and identified major regulatory transcription factors (TF...

Codon usage bias (CUB) is a unique property of genome which refers to non-random usage of synonymous codons in coding sequences. The present study makes an attempt to find out the pattern of CUB in chloroplast (cp) genes among three tea species, i.e., Camellia sinensis var. assamica (Assam tea), Cam...

Tea flavor is a comprehensive representation of its aroma and other characteristics. The formation of volatile odor compounds during tea processing depends on a variety of enzymatic and non-enzymatic activities. (Z)-3-hexenol is considered the primary source of the green odor and is also the most im...

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) are endogenous non-protein-coding small RNAs that play crucial and versatile regulatory roles in plants. Using a computational identification method, we identified 55 conserved miRNAs in tea (Camellia sinensis) by aligning miRNA sequences of different plant species with the transc...

We performed volatile and nonvolatile metabolome analysis of Zhuyeqi (Z) and Baihaozao (B) dark teas during three stages of tea processing: (1) after withering and kneading (S), (2) after pile-fermenting (M), and (3) during drying and second kneading (Z). Our results indicate that the Z variety was...

Cadmium (Cd), a non-essential element of plants, can be absorbed by the root of tea plants [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze], leading to hindered tea growth and compromised tea leaf quality. Hydrogen sulfide (H2S), a novel gas signaling molecule, plays an important regulatory role in plant growth,...
