Exogenous Foliar Application of Phenolic Acids on Quality Constituents of Tea

Abstract

Exogenous foliar application of phenolic acid could alter the biochemical composition and enhance the antioxidant potential there by protect the living organisms from oxidative injuries. Though the reports on foliar application of phenolics in relation to stress are available their role on quality constituents are lacking in crop plants and in particular, the beverage crop, tea. A phenolic acids like salicylic acid (SA), cinnamic acid (CA) and p-coumaric acid (PCA) were applied individually at various concentrations (100, 250 and 500 ppm) in order to document the changes in the quality constituents of tea crop. When compared to control all the treatments, significantly increased the contents of green leaf polyphenols and flavanoids and corresponding enzymes under field conditions.
