Article Synopsis
- The study investigates the role of fatty acid synthesis in determining the oil content of tea seeds and the selection of tea tree varieties for leaf and fruit harvesting.
- Researchers compared two cultivars, Jincha 2 and Wuniuzao, finding that Jincha 2 had better photosynthetic rates and metabolite profiles, contributing to its higher oil content.
- Key findings include the identification of 94 significant metabolites, including hormone regulators and precursors for fatty acid synthesis, which were found in higher abundance in Jincha 2, indicating its superior traits for tea production.
is an opportunistic human fungal pathogen, and its drug resistance is becoming a serious problem. seed saponins showed inhibitory effects on resistant strains, but the active components and mechanisms are unclear. In this study, the effects and mechanisms of two seed saponin monomers, theasaponin E1 (TE1) and assamsaponin A (ASA), on a resistant strain (ATCC 10231) were explored.
