Diverse Colletotrichum species cause anthracnose of tea plants (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) in China
Anthracnose caused by Colletotrichum is one of the most severe diseases that can afflict Camellia sinensis. However, research on the diversity and geographical distribution of Colletotrichum in China remain limited. In this study, 106 Colletotrichum isolates were collected from diseased leaves of Ca. sinensis cultivated in the 15 main tea production provinces in China. Multi-locus phylogenetic ...
متن کاملExpression of caffeine biosynthesis genes in tea (Camellia sinensis).
Using semi-quantitative reverse transcription-PCR, we studied the expression of genes encoding caffeine synthase (TCS1), inosine-5'-monophosphate dehydrogenase (TIDH), S-adenosyl-L-methionine synthase (sAMS), phenylalanine ammonia-lyase (PAL) and alpha-tubulin (Tua1) in young and mature leaves, stems and roots of 4-month-old tea seedlings and young and old tea tissue cultures. The amounts of tr...
متن کاملChemopreventive effect of green tea (Camellia sinensis) among cigarette smokers.
Chemopreventive effects of green tea and coffee among cigarette smokers were examined in 52 clinically healthy male subjects between 20 and 52 years of age. Blood specimens were obtained from nonsmokers (group I), smokers (group II), smokers consuming green tea (group III), and smokers drinking coffee (group IV). The mean number of cigarette smoking years (> 10 cigarettes/day) in groups II-IV r...
متن کاملAnti-Trypanosoma cruzi activity of green tea (Camellia sinensis) catechins.
The trypanocidal action of green tea catechins against two different developmental stages of Trypanosoma cruzi is reported for the first time. This activity was assayed with the nonproliferative bloodstream trypomastigote and with the intracellular replicative amastigote parasite forms. An ethyl acetate fraction from Camellia sinensis green tea leaves, which contains most of the polyphenolic co...
متن کاملInhibition of xanthine oxidase by catechins from tea (Camellia sinensis).
Some epidemiological studies have associated tea drinking with several health benefits, while other such studies have been inconclusive. The liver enzyme, xanthine oxidase (XO) produces uric acid and reactive oxygen species (ROS) during the catabolism of purines. Excess of the former can lead to gout and of the latter to increased oxidative stress, mutagenesis and possibly cancer. Polyphenols a...
