2.A.40.4.4
Purine (uric acid and xanthine) permease, UapC.  Present in many Ascomycetes (Krypotou and Diallinas 2014).  Drought is an important abiotic stress that constrains the quality and quantity of tea plants. The green leaf volatiles, Z-3-hexenyl acetate (Z-3-HAC), play an essential role in stress responses (Wang et al. 2023).
