Accessions from an Italian tea cultivation were studied by means of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. In total 83 tea accessions were analysed using 63 SSRs selected from 15 different linkage groups of the tea plant. The results revealed a close correlation between the 16 accessions from seeds and the Chinese tea cultivars belonging to the sinensis variety. In particular, these samples showed a close genetic relationship to the cultivars of the Zhejiang Provinces.

Abstract
Accessions from an Italian tea cultivation were studied by means of simple sequence repeat (SSR) markers. In total 83 tea accessions were analysed using 63 SSRs selected from 15 different linkage groups of the tea plant. The results revealed a close correlation between the 16 accessions from seeds and the Chinese tea cultivars belonging to the sinensis variety. In particular, these samples showed a close genetic relationship to the cultivars of the Zhejiang Provinces.
