Hashimoto and Shimura reported that the differences in the morphological characteristics in tea plants are not necessarily the evidence of the dualism hypothesis from the researches using the statistical cluster analysis method. In recent investigations, it has also been made clear that both varieties have the same chromosome number (n=15) and can be easily hybridised with each other. In addition, various types of intermediate hybrids or spontaneous polyploids of tea plants have been found in a wide area extending over the regions mentioned above. These facts may prove that the place of origin of <i>Camellia sinensis</i> is in the area including the northern part of the Burma, Yunnan, and Sichuan districts of China.</q></cite><span title="ctx_ver=Z39.88-2004&rft_val_fmt=info%3Aofi%2Ffmt%3Akev%3Amtx%3Abook&rft.genre=book&rft.btitle=Chemistry+and+Applications+of+Green+Tea&rft.pages=4&rft.pub=CRC+Press&rft.date=1997&rft.isbn=978-0-8493-4006-2&rft.aulast=Yamamoto&rft.aufirst=T&rft.au=Kim%2C+M&rft.au=Juneja%2C+L+R&rfr_id=info%3Asid%2Fen.wikipedia.org%3ATea" class="Z3988"></span></span> </li> <li id="cite_note-4"><span class="mw-cite-backlink"><b><a href="#cite_ref-4">^</a></b></span> <span class="reference-text"><link rel="mw-deduplicated-inline-style" href="mw-data:TemplateStyles:r1238218222"><cite id="CITEREFMary_Lou_HeissRobert_J._Heiss" class="citation book cs1">Mary Lou Heiss; Robert J.
