Advances on Transgenic Technique in Tea Plants

Tea plant originated from China, it had been spread to many countries and became the important economic plant and popular healthy beverage plant in the world. Transgenic technique is very important in molecular biology fields. The characteristic, examples and achievements of Agrobacterium- mediated technique and particle bombardment-mediated technique in tea plants were introduced in this paper. The problems and prospects of transgene in tea plants were discussed. The paper will provide the theory basic for application on tea breeding of new technologies.
