抄録

Light enhanced the growth of tea seedlings but the amount of caffeine produced in light was almost identical to that in the shade, indicating that more synthesis and/or less degradation of caffeine occur(s) in shaded seedlings. Administering [N^1_methyl-^<14>Cl]-caffeine to tea shoot tips showed that light promotes the degradation of caffeine only slightly.
