Applied nitrogen (N) fertilizer significantly increases the leaf yield. However, most N is not
utilized by the plant, negatively impacting the environment. To date, little is known regarding …

Nitrogen (N) uptake, as the first step of N metabolism, is a key limiting factor for plant growth.
To understand the gene expression networks that control N absorption and metabolism in …

Abstract Ammonium (NH 4+) and nitrate (NO 3−) are the two major forms of inorganic
nitrogen absorbed by plants and can also act as signals regulating gene expression. Tea …

The effects of the different forms of N, ammonium (NH 4+) and nitrate (NO 3−), on secondary
metabolite biosynthesis in tea plants are well known. However, the mechanisms of …

Free amino acids, including theanine, glutamine and glutamate, contribute greatly to the
pleasant taste and multiple health benefits of tea. Amino acids in tea plants are mainly …

Tea trees have a high demand for nitrogen (N) fertilizer to improve the yield and quality of
tea. In this research, transcriptome analysis revealed the effect of N starvation and resupply …

Nitrogen (N) is associated with amino acid metabolism in higher plants. Theanine is an
important amino acid in tea plants. To explore the relationship between theanine …

Nitrogen is one of the most important nutrients for tea plants, as it contributes significantly to
tea yield and serves as the component of amino acids, which in turn affects the quality of tea …

Nitrogen plays an important role in plant growth and development, with different nitrogen
forms also having an impact on carbon/nitrogen metabolism. Unlike most plants, tea plants …

Previous studies have revealed that dramatic changes in metabolism occur in albino tea
leaves compared with regular green tea leaves. In particular, the flavonoid content …
