Abstract We previously reported the species-specific annual ring formation characteristics of three conifers (slash pine ( Pinus elliottii ), hinoki (Japanese cypress, Chamaecyparis obtusa ) and sugi cedar, Cryptomeria japonica )) grown in same stand over 2 years. found that affected inherent difference wood density among these > sugi). Plant hormones cambial-region tissues were believed to ...

Summary Different phenotypes of allergic rhinitis have been identified based on the seasonality of the allergen involved. Within pollinosis, importance has to be paid to the responsible pollen species. Guidelines for clinical management are mostly based on studies performed in patients with grass pollen allergy. Only few data is available on tree pollen allergy and more specifically on cypress ...

Bald cypress has been retreating in the estuary ecosystem of the Loxahatchee River Watershed in southeastern Florida because of the negative impacts of anthropogenic activities. Seed germination of bald cypress is an important means to increase the arbor population in the vegetation community and accelerate restoration of the wetland ecosystem. The objective of this research was to find an effe...

BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Pollens from the Cupressaceae family are considered important allergens in the Mediterranean area, though reports of the prevalence of allergic symptoms have ranged from 1.04% to 35.4%. Our aim was to detect the prevalence of cypress pollen sensitization and determine its clinical importance in patients with seasonal respiratory allergy. METHODS We used skin prick tes...

abstractin this work, the micro powder was the product of cedar leaf (mpcl) is used as a low-cost adsorbent for the removal of pb2+ ions from aqueous solutions. bath experiments were used to determine the best adsorption conditions the adsorption percentage of pb2+ ions mpcl samples at different initial ph, contact time (tc), adsorbent dosage and temperature (t) were investigated. effective rem...
