Description
Summary:Oil-tea (Camellia oleifera) is an important woody oil crop in China, and it is an effective way to develop oil-tea cultivation to fill the gap of edible oil and alleviate the conflict between grain and oil crops over land. Light is the primary ecological factor that regulates the plant growth and development, and directly determines the yield and quality of oil-tea. It is of great importance to clarify the ecological adaptation law of photosynthetic performance, growth and development of oil-tea to the complex light environment for its sustainable production. This study reviewed the influence mechanisms of different light environments on photo-physiological characteristics, morphological indexes, assimilate accumulation and transport, antioxidant enzyme activity and endogenous hormones in oil-tea. Understanding the response mechanisms of the photosynthesis, plant growth and development to different light intensities and light qualities can provide a theoretical basis for the germplasm breeding and cultivation mode establishing in oil-tea with high light efficiency.
