“…Tea polyphenol accounts for about 25%~35% of the total dry matter of tea, and the catechin accounts for 65%~80% in the total tea polyphenol [27]. Epigallocatechin gallate (also known as EGCG) with the highest concentration is the most studied polyphenol component in tea and the most active as shown in Scheme 1 [28]. During the withering, the total polyphenol and the catechin content decrease with time, which can form an oxidation product of theaflavins and thearubigins meanwhile increase the levels of theaflavin, gallic, and amino acids [29,30].…”

In this work, the Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and Terahertz time domain spectra (THz-TDS) were employed to study Pu’er white tea with different oxidation levels by changing the withering time. The strongest absorption peak of 3359 cm-1 in FTIR spectra comes from the proteins and polysaccharides. Several intensity ratios of the characteristic absorption peaks with different oxidation levels were analyzed. The white tea with different oxidation levels can be distinguished from the absorbance of THz-TDS in the range of 0.5–1.5 THz. The refractive index calculated from THz-TDS was between 1.42 and 1.44. Principal component analysis (PCA) using FTIR absorbance data showed that the scattered points of PC1 and PC2 can be well distributed in different districts. Hierarchical cluster analysis (HCA) helped to carry out the clustering results of different white tea samples. The sample with overoxidation level can be distinguished by PCA and HCA using THz-TDS absorbance data. Therefore, FTIR might be a convenient, fast, and nondestructive strategy for identifying white tea with different oxidation levels. THz-TDS combined with some software algorithms can be applied to distinguish the different oxidation-processed tea.

“…Surrounded by a wide variety of native flora and animals, the Nagamalai hills, 12 km south of Madurai city, possess untapped assets. Popular by several names, "Anjan," or Hardwickia binata Roxb, is a deciduous tree that has been used in traditional medicine to cure a wide range of conditions, including leprosy, dyspepsia, leucorrhea, cancer, diarrhea, and Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria [8,9]. As far as we can determine, H. binata, one of the most common woodland plants, has no record of endophytic fungus.…”

Endophytic fungus is crucial for maintaining plant health and defense mechanisms, acting as protective barriers against pathogens, and producing medicinally beneficial bioactive compounds. Genome sequencing and metagenomics have significantly enhanced the understanding of fungal diversity and metabolic capabilities, enabling the identification of new genes and substances. Traditional culture-dependent methods have been complemented by culture-independent techniques, offering a more comprehensive view of fungal diversity. Using both culture-dependent and culture-independent techniques, the present research investigation explored the diversity of endophytic fungi encountered in the foliage of Hardwickia binata. The study examined the topographical characteristics and nutritional content of soil samples collected from the locality of the selected plant sample, H. binata, to better comprehend the effects on the plant’s growth. The balanced nutrient constituted approximately a pH of 7.2, which suggested an alkaline nature and promoted plant development. The ratio of nitrogen, phosphorous, and potassium remained 3:1:1. A total of 25 fungal isolates, categorized into 17 morphotypes, were obtained using the culture-dependent approach; Curvularia and Nigrospora emerged as the most common genera. Furthermore, the prediction of the ITS2 secondary structure supports the identification of species, highlighting a wide variety of fungal species present in H. binata. The culture-independent approach generated 69,570 high-quality sequences, identifying 269 Operational Taxonomic Units (OTUs). The dominant Ascomycota phylum, along with various genera, indicated a rich fungal community associated with H. binata. This study advances the understanding of the endophytic fungus communities that are associated with H. binata and the nature of soil ecology. The findings emphasize the significance of holistic techniques in the study of microbial dynamics within plant systems as well as their implications for ecosystem management and plant health.
