Journal ArticleDOI
Soil acidification in Chinese tea plantations.
Peng Yan,Liangquan Wu,Donghui Wang,Jianyu Fu,Chen Shen,Xin Li,Zhang Liping,Lan Zhang,Lichao Fan,Han Wenyan +9 more
TL;DR: Nationwide survey of soil acidification in the major tea-planting areas of China and two nationwide surveys in three Chinese counties show serious soil acidity occurs nationally in China, and organic management is an adaptive choice for sustainable tea growth.
Journal ArticleDOI
Tea planting affects soil acidification and nitrogen and phosphorus distribution in soil
TL;DR: It is indicated that soil acidification could occur in deep soil profiles as a result of tea cultivation and excessive fertilization; thus, there is a high risk of N and P leaching loss in tea gardens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Melatonin-mediated regulation of anthocyanin biosynthesis and antioxidant defense confer tolerance to arsenic stress in Camellia sinensis L
Xin Li,Golam Jalal Ahammed,Xue-Ning Zhang,Lan Zhang,Peng Yan,Zhang Liping,Jianyu Fu,Wen-Yan Han +7 more
TL;DR: It is reported that excess As causes severe oxidative stress in tea leaves as revealed by significantly reduced maximal photochemical efficiency of photosystem-II, and increased reactive oxygen species accumulation and lipid peroxidation, but exogenous melatonin application alleviated the As phytotoxicity.
Journal ArticleDOI
Nitric oxide mediates brassinosteroid-induced flavonoid biosynthesis in Camellia sinensis L.
Xin Li,Lan Zhang,Golam Jalal Ahammed,Zhi-Xin Li,Ji-Peng Wei,Chen Shen,Peng Yan,Zhang Liping,Wen-Yan Han +8 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that an optimal level of endogenous NO is essential for BR-induced promotion of flavonoid biosynthesis in tea leaves, which might have potential implication in improving the quality of tea.
Journal ArticleDOI
Stimulation in primary and secondary metabolism by elevated carbon dioxide alters green tea quality in Camellia sinensis L.
Xin Li,Lan Zhang,Golam Jalal Ahammed,Zhi-Xin Li,Ji-Peng Wei,Chen Shen,Peng Yan,Zhang Liping,Wen-Yan Han +8 more
TL;DR: Exposure of tea plants to elevated CO2 remarkably improved both photosynthesis and respiration in tea leaves, which eventually modulated the biosynthesis of key secondary metabolites towards production of a quality green tea.
