The State Key Laboratory of Tea Plant Biology and Utilization is based on the national key (cultivation) discipline of Anhui Agricultural University -Tea Science. This discipline was formerly the Tea Special Discipline at College of Agronomy, Fudan University. It is the cradle of tea science discipline in China, and has been selected into the world-class discipline construction plan of Anhui Province and the peak discipline of Anhui Province. At present, the laboratory mainly focuses on four research areas: tea plant physiological ecology and germplasm innovation, tea plant secondary metabolism and quality chemistry, health function and mechanism of action of tea, and quality safety and processing utilization of tea.

 

The laboratory has:

 

1) First-class research facilities: the total area dedicated to research is 12,000 m2, equipped with instruments and devices that cost more than 100 million yuan. Ten major technology platforms have been established, including molecular biology of tea plant, bioinformatics, metabolomics, isolation and structural identification, cytological analysis, experimental animals, quality and safety inspection technology, quality chemistry and control technology, physiology and nutrition, and spectral analysis.

 

2) Top-notch research teams: the laboratory currently has 74 scientific researchers, including 33 professors, 4 national-level talents, 28 returnees from overseas study, and 27 PhD supervisors.
