Abstract

Information on genetic diversity with respect to biochemical characteristics is very important for improving tea quality. Thirteen introduced tea clones were characterized at Jimma agricultural research center (Melko and Gera research stations) with the aim of identifying the diversity of tea clones based on biochemical traits. The study was conducted in triplicate of RCBD during the 2017/18 crop season. Data on biochemical traits such as total polyphenols, total antioxidants, β-carotene, ascorbic acid, leaf water content, chlorophyll content, and photosynthetic efficiency were recorded. Cluster analysis showed that the tea clones were classified into four groups, indicating the presence of variability among the examined clones. The maximum distance was observed between clusters III and IV (1216) whereas, the minimum distance (373.39) was between clusters II and IV. The results of principal components analysis exhibited that the first three principal components contributed for 77.22% diversity among the tea clones. In general, the study showed existing of difference among tea clones on considered biochemical parameters. Nevertheless, high biochemical variation among clones does not only a assurance for a high genetic difference; hence, molecular research need to be complemented as corresponding to biochemical studies.
