Immunohistochemical localization of caffeine in young Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze (tea) leaves [PDF]
Planta, 2012 The anatomical localization of caffeine within young Camellia sinensis leaves was investigated using immunohistochemical methods and confocal scanning laser microscopy. Preliminary fixation experiments were conducted with young C. sinensis leaves to determine which fixation procedure retained caffeine the best as determined by high-performance liquid ...

Clonal variation of tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] in countering water deficiency [PDF]
Physiology and Molecular Biology of Plants, 2010 Various clones of tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze] such as TTL-1, TTL-2, TTL-4, TTL-5, TTL-6, UPASI-2 and UPASI-3 planted in the field were subjected to soil moisture stress conditions by withholding irrigation. A control set of the same clones were maintained by watering regularly. The soil water content of the irrigated and non irrigated plants
