Research Progress in the Phytohormone of Tea Plant (Camellia sinensis)
Phytohormone plays a critical role in the plant growth and development. This article reviewed the planthormone in modulating growth and development of tea plant under normal condition and under stress, the effect ofhormones in tea tissue culture, and recent advance in the investigation of hormone was discussed. Consequently, itwas regarded that the investigation on the regulation mechanism of phytohormone on the sprouting of tea bud and theresistance of tea plant to stress in the research will become the new hotspot after the tea plant genome beingsequenced.
