In order to better conserve and utilize Hunan tea plant resources, 110 tea accessions from seven geographical origins were used to assess genetic diversity of Hunan tea plant germplasm through genotyping by sequencing (GBS) technology. As a result, a total of 311,044 high-quality single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) markers were obtained. Population structure, phylogenetic relationships and principal component analysis (PCA) divided the entire accessions into three groups. The genetic diversity and population differentiation analysis showed that the mean observed heterozygosity (Ho) ranged from 0.16 to 0.24, while the mean polymorphic information content (PIC) ranged from 0.14 to 0.17, and mean minor allele frequency (MAF) ranged from 0.11 to 0.14. Analysis of molecular variance (AMOVA) indicated that 81.38% of the total variance was derived from within populations, which suggested a rich genetic diversity in Hunan tea germplasms. Furthermore, a core tea germplasm set was developed, which was comprised of 22 tea plant accessions and maintained the whole genetic diversity of the entire collection. This work should be valuable for conservation and utilization of tea germplasm in Hunan.","PeriodicalId":223765,"journal":{"name":"Beverage Plant Research","volume":"36 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1900-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123020769","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fresh shoots from 336 accessions of C. sinensis and its closely related species and varieties were harvested and their non-volatile metabolites were detected through UPLC-MS (ultra-performance liquid chromatography - mass spectrometry). A total of 374 non-volatile metabolites were identified, which can be divided into 27 categories. Among them, 32 compounds were flavonoid polymers. The tea plants were divided into two groups, according to the Calinski criterion according to the composition of metabolites. The top 30 differential metabolites in C. sinensis var. sinensis , C. sinensis var. assamica , C. sinensis var. pubilimba , C. tachangensis , and C. taliensis , belong to amino acids and their derivatives, benzoic acid derivatives, carbohydrates, coumarins, flavonol glycosides, organic acids, quinoline acid and its derivatives.

The effects of different pruning operations on the plant growth, phytohormones and transcriptome profiles of the following spring tea shoots were studied. Pruning-treated samples had generally increased median of the weight of 100 buds (two leaves and one bud, 15.5−20.5 g) and longer stem diameter (1.7−1.8 mm) whereas shorter shoot length (34.6−59.2 mm) at the stage of two leaves and one bud, compared with unpruned samples (14.0 g, 1.7 mm, 87.4 mm), among which heavy pruning in mid April and early May greatly accelerated the development of the following spring tea shoots. The levels of phytohormones (auxin, gibberellin 1, gibberellin 3, and trans -zeatin) were significantly increased in the spring buds of tea plants heavily pruned in May. The KEGG result indicated that the pathways of plant–pathogen interaction, plant hormone signal transduction and circadian rhythm were regulated by different pruning treatments. Heavy pruning in April or May, without autumn pruning was suitable for producing premium green tea due to the early development and the higher weight of 100 buds.

To date, there are various tea genetic resources and numerous high-density genetic maps owing to the progress and development of the tea plant genome. In this review, we comprehensively reflect the mining and identification of quality-related candidate genes using quantitative trait loci (QTL) mapping and genome-wide association study (GWAS) in tea plants in recent years.
