Systems scale characterization of circadian rhythm pathway in Camellia sinensis.

ABSTRACT: Tea (Camellia sinensis) is among the most valuable commercial crops being a non-alcoholic beverage having antioxidant properties. Like in other plants, circadian oscillator in tea modulates several biological processes according to earth's revolution dependent variations in environmental cues like light and temperature. In the present study, we report genome wide identification and characterization of circadian oscillator (CO) proteins in tea. We first mined the genes (24, in total) involved in circadian rhythm pathway in the 56 plant species having available genomic information and then built their hidden Markov models (HMMs). Using these HMMs, 24 proteins were identified in tea and were further assessed for their functional annotation. Expression analysis of all these 24 CO protei
