From: Metabolite profiling and transcriptomic analyses reveal an essential role of UVR8-mediated signal transduction pathway in regulating flavonoid biosynthesis in tea plants (Camellia sinensis) in response to shading

The effects of shading on flavonoid accumulation in tea buds in tea plantation. a The composition of flavonoids in tea buds from the control and shading treatments at time point of 14d. b The changes of major catechins in tea buds in different treatments throughout shading period. C, catechin; EC, epicatechin; EGC, epigallocatechin; GC, gallocatechin; GCG, gallocatechin 3-O-gallate; EGCG, epigallocatechin 3-O-gallate; ECG, epicatechin 3-O-gallate; K7G, keampferol-7-O-glucoside; K3Gal, kaempferol-3-O-galactopyranoside; RT, retention time; ns, no significance. Data shown are the average mean ± SE of three replicates (n = 3). Different letters (a, b, c) indicate statistical significance among different treatments according to one-way ANOVA and a Fisher’s LSD test at the 5% level
