Seed development in Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze

Seed Science Research, 2002
Seed development of tea was studied to identify the maturity index and the optimal time of seed collection. After harvest, the moisture content (28–30%fresh weight basis) of mature seeds, which germinated 100%, declined progressively (19% moisture content) after shedding, with a decrease in seed germination and viability.

Biotechnological advances in tea (Camellia sinensis [L.] O. Kuntze): a review

Plant Cell Reports, 2015
This article presents a comprehensive review on the success and limitations of biotechnological approaches aimed at genetic improvement of tea with a purpose to explore possibilities to address challenging areas. Tea is a woody perennial tree with a life span of more than 100 years.

In vitro regeneration of Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze by somatic embryogenesis

Plant Cell Reports, 1995
Within 3 weeks of culture, excised cotyledon expiants of Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze produced somatic embryos without intermediate callus when cultured in Murashige and Skoog's basal medium with 30 g(-1) sucrose. In medium without plant growth regulators, up to 60% of the cultures developed somatic embryos.

Molecular regulation of catechins biosynthesis in tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze]

Gene, 2012
Catechins are bioprospecting molecules present in tea and any effort towards metabolic engineering of this important moiety would require knowledge on gene regulation. These are synthesized through the activities of phenylpropanoid and flavonoid pathways. Expression regulation of various genes of these pathways namely phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (CsPAL)

In vitro clonal propagation of tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze)

Plant Cell, Tissue and Organ Culture, 1992
A system for in vitro clonal propagation has been developed in tea plants. Shoots obtained from primary explants were induced from terminal buds and axillary buds of mature field-grown plants. Cultures were initiated from both types of explants on Murashige and Skoog (MS) medium supplemented with 10% coconut milk (CM), 200 mg l-1 of yeast extract (YE),

Micropropagation of tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) using Thidiazuron

Plant Growth Regulation, 1998
The effect of thidiazuron (TDZ) on the micropropagation of Camellia sinensis (China hybrid) was compared with that of benzylaminopurine (BAP) using nodal segments from in vitro raised seedlings. Extremely low concentrations of TDZ (1pM–100nM) alone were effective in inducing shoot bud proliferation and maintaining high rates of shoot multiplication on ...
