Time-course analysis of theanine biosynthetic genes as influenced by the SHT in tea leaves. Two years-old tea [Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze cv. Longjing 43] seedlings were exposed to SHT (35°C) for 5 days in temperature-controlled chambers. One bud and two leaves under the bud were sampled at the indicated time-points to analyze transcript abundance of ARGININE DECARBOXYLASE (CsADC), GLUTAMINE SYNTHETASE (CsGS), GLUTAMATE SYNTHASE (CsGOGAT), and THEANINE SYNTHASE (CsTS) using real-time qPCR. Data are presented as the mean of three biological replicates (±SD). Means denoted by the same letter at the same time point do not significantly differ at P < 0.05 according to Tukey’s test.
