The validation of two major QTLs related to the timing of spring bud flush in Camellia sinensis
The timing of spring bud flush (TBF) in tea plants (Camellia sinensis) is an adaptive critical and economically important trait; thus, it has been a focus of many tea-breeding programs. Previously, we reported th...
