Abstract

Background: Japanese tea trees are grown in many places in Da Lat, Thua Thien Hue, and Hanoi. Leaf extracts have strong antioxidant activity, but there are few scientific reports. Objectives: To investigate the botanical characteristics, DNA barcodes and preliminary phytochemical screening of Japanese tea. Materials and Methods: Japanese tea fresh plants collected in Phu LocThua Thien Hue were analysised, toke a photo, described the morphological and anatomical characteristics, traditional powder, analyzed gene matK sequence and preliminary phytochemical screening was conducted by improved Ciuley method. Results: Japanese tea was identified as Camellia japonica L. based on morphological characteristics and gene matK sequence, and data of anatomy, traditional powder, and phytochemical constituents. Conclusion: The study confirmed the scientific name of Japanese tea in Viet nam is Camellia japonica L. (Theaceae).
