With the increasing popularity of tea (Camellia sinensis (L.) O. Kuntze) as an important beverage drink throughout the world, the demand for high quality and high yielding varieties is also rising. Therefore, genetic improvement of tea through biotechnological means has become a necessity. Improvement via Agrobacterium tumefaciens mediated transformation holds potential. However, there is an urgent requirement for an efficient in vitro system of regeneration for its successful implementation.
