Detection of caffeine content and genetic variations within caffeine biosynthesis-related genes. a. Detection of catechin content of the bud and leaf of both ‘Shuchaza’ and ‘Yunkang 10’. T-test was employed for significant analysis and one asterisk represents p < 0.05. Each sample was tested with three independent biological replicates and two technical replicates. b. The caffeine biosynthesis pathway. IMP, Inosine monophosphate; XMP, Xanthosine monophosphate; GMP, Guanosine monophosphate; IMPDH, IMP dehydrogenase; GMPS, Guanosine synthase; 5′-Nase, 5′-nucleotidase; 7-NMT, 7-methylxanthosine synthase; SAM, S-Adenosyl-L-methionine; N-MeNase, N-methylnucleotidase; TCS, tea caffeine synthase. c. SNPs and InDels calling in caffeine biosynthesis-related genes
