| Abstract | Tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) is one of the most beneficial beverages due to its health attributes. Whole leaf transcriptome analysis of three leaf stages of C. sinensis has the potential to reveal candidate genes associated with these major beneficial compounds. Epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) is one of the most important bioactive catechin (antioxidant) in tea drink derived. EGCG has many important physiological functions and positive effects on human health, such as anticancer, antioxidation, controlling blood pressure, and blood sugar content. Although the major metabolic pathways of tea-specific compounds have been established, knowledge of the genes involved in the regulation and synthesis of EGCG in C. sinensis is limited. To gain insight into the molecular mechanisms that regulate EGCG levels, leaf transcriptomes were sequenced at three developmental stages (bud, second leaf, and fourth leaf) of two C. sinensis cultivars and one F$_{1}$ hybrid line #1005 that possess varying EGCG levels. Approximately 470.9 M of quality controlled-filtered sequencing paired-end reads corresponding to 47.09 G nucleotides were obtained from which 130,762 unique sequences were identified. Genes whose expression correlated with changes in EGCG levels were identified, which may be associated with EGCG content. Prediction of the potential targets of microRNAs (miRNAs), the specific subset of long noncoding RNAs (LncRNAs), and mRNA-like noncoding RNAs (mlncRNAs) indicated that miRNAs may play a role in the expression regulation of the genes involved in EGCG levels. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
