Tissue culture is very important for identifying the gene function of Camellia sinensis (L.) and exploiting novel germplasm through transgenic technology. Regeneration system of tea plant has been explored but not been well established since the molecular mechanism of tea plant regeneration is not clear yet. In this study, transcriptomic analysis was performed in the initial explants of tea plant and their dedifferentiated and redifferentiated tissues. A total of 93,607 unigenes were obtained through de novo assembly, and 7,193 differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened out from the 42,417 annotated unigenes. Much more DEGs were observed during phase transition rather than at growth stages of callus. Our KOG and KEGG analysis, and qPCR results confirmed that phase transition of tea plant was closely related to the mechanism that regulate expression of genes encoding the auxin- and cytokinin-responsive proteins, transcription factor MYB15 and ethylene-responsive transcription factor ERF RAP2-12. These findings provide a reliable foundation for elucidating the mechanism of the phase transition and may help to optimize the regeneration system by regulating the gene expression pattern.

Jasmine tea, a further processing tea made by scenting green, black, oolong, or other tea with jasmine flowers, is widely appreciated worldwide for its fragrant aroma, refreshing taste, and beneficial health effects. The production of jasmine tea is a meticulous and complex process that involves chemical reactions, physical adsorption, and flavor interaction effects at the sensory level between jasmine and tea. This paper provides a comprehensive review of the research on the processing technology, characteristic aroma formation, nonvolatile compounds, and health benefits of jasmine tea.

In the search for novel succinate dehydrogenase inhibitors (SDHIs) fungicides for managing rice sheath blight (RSB) and sclerotinia stem rot (SSR), 28 pyrazole-4-carboxamides incorporating stilbene or diphenylacetylene scaffolds were synthesized and evaluated for antifungal activities. The results showed that compound exhibited the most promising antifungal efficacy against and with EC (half maximal effective concentration) values of 0.004 and 0.

The post-weaning period is stressful for pigs due to changes in their environment and diet. The occurrence of diarrhea at this stage is high. Growth promoters such as antibiotics and zinc oxide (ZnO) have been used to not only reduce post-weaning diarrhea but also improve growth performance of weaning pigs.

Alkaline pectinases are in demand in industrial processes that require the degradation of plant pectins at high pH, for example, removal of pectin stains from fabrics, cutlery, and porcelain; treatment of pectic wastewater; fermentation of coffee, tea, and cocoa; manufacture of poultry and animal feeds, and processing of textiles, and so forth. The present study aimed to (a) screen four alkaliphilic microbial isolates, previously obtained from samples collected around Lake Bogoria (soda lake), Baringo County, Kenya, for alkaline pectinases, and (b) characterize the pectinase-producers. The screening data revealed that all the isolates were pectinase producers, exhibiting catalytic activities that ranged from 1.
