摘要： Tea, as a global nonalcoholic beverage, is widely consumed due to its economic, health and cultural importance. Polyploids have the ability to solve the problems of low yield, cold resistance and insect resistance in tea tree varieties. However, the response mechanism to aluminum and heavy metal remains unclear. In this study, the content of Al, Cu and Cd were measured in the leaves and roots of 'Qianmei 419' and 'Qianfu 4', respectively. The content of Al, Cd and Cu in the roots of the 'Qianmei 419' tea variety were significantly higher than in 'Qianfu 4' roots. Only the content of Cu in the leaves of the 'Qianmei 419' tea variety was significantly higher than that in the roots of the 'Qianfu 4' tea variety. Moreover, we found that the content of Al, Cu and Cd in the soil around the root of 'Qianfu 4' were higher than in the soil around the root of 'Qianmei 419'. RNA-seq was performed to identify the DEGs involved in the accumulation of Al, Cu and Cd between 'Qianmei 419' and 'Qianfu 4'. A total of 23,813 DEGs were identified in the triploid tea variety, including 16,459 upregulated DEGs and 7354 downregulated DEGs. Among them, by analyzing the expression levels of some metal transporter genes, it was found that most of the metal transporter genes were downregulated in the triploid tea plants. In short, through the analysis of transcriptome data and metal content, it was found that changes in metal transporter gene expression affect the accumulation of metals in tea plants. These results provide candidate genes to enhance multi-metal tolerance through genetic engineering technology.
