It is generally proposed that tea cultivars with larger leaves contain more linalool, an important tea aroma contributor, than ones with smaller leaves. The objective of this study was to confirm the trait and explore the involved reason. Investigation on ten tea cultivars with different leaf areas demonstrated a significant pos. correlation between linalool content and leaf area (R2 = 0.739, p = 0.010). Anal. of metabolite and gene expression level showed that the transform ability of linalool into linalool oxides was the key factor. Feeding experiments that supplied tea leaves of different leaf areas with [2H3]linalool under different light conditions revealed that the larger tea leaves receive more light and are less capable of transformation of linalool to linalool oxides, thus leading to linalool accumulation. This information will advance understanding of the variation of linalool content in tea varieties and will provide assistance in breeding and screening of high-linalool tea cultivars.
