Gene expression, catechins content and the correlations between them in three different seasons. a. The biosynthesis pathway of catechins in tea plants. b. The concentration of each catechin in tea leaves of three seasons. c Heat map of detected genes in catechins biosynthesis pathway of transcriptome data. The correlation between b and c were indicated with straight lines (coefficients> 0.9, P < 0.05). Full line means positive correlation, dotted line means negative correlation. ANR: anthocyanidin reductase; ANS: anthocyanidin synthase; CHS: chalcone synthase; CHI: chalcone isomerase; DFR: dihydroflavonol 4-reductase; F3’H: flavanone 3-hydroxylase; F3’5’H: flavonoid 3′,5′-hydroxylase; SCPL1A: type 1A serine carboxypeptidase-like acyltransferases
