Effects of theanine on the expression of H2O2 metabolism-related and LR development-related genes in roots of tea plant seedlings. Expression of ROS metabolism-related genes (a), cell wall remodeling-related genes (b), cell division-related genes (c), and auxin pathway-related genes (d) in the roots of tea plant seedlings under control (CK) or 1 mM theanine (Thea) treatment. (e) Confocal images of the roots of DR5::CFP transgenic Arabidopsis seedlings. The fluorescence showed the CFP signal. Scale bar = 0.1 mm.
