Hesperocyparis (Cupressus) goveniana and putative Cupressus goveniana subsp. gibsonensis plus H. pygmaea were analyzed by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSRs). The ISSRs analyses support the continued recognition H. pygmaea and H. goveniana, but the recognition of Cupressus goveniana subsp. gibsonensis Silba was not supported. Phytologia 91(2):277-286 (August, 2009).

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...

Agents situated in dynamic and unpredictable environments require several capabilities, including synthesizing and executing plans while continuing to be responsive to the world. The Cypress system is a domain-independent framework for defining persistent agents with this full range of behavior. Cypress has been used for several applications, including military operations and fault diagnosis on...

Cypress Semiconductor makes a variety of PLL-based clock generators. This application note provides a set of recommendations to optimize usage of Cypress clock devices in a system. The application note begins with recommended termination techniques for clock generators. Subsequently, power supply filtering and bypassing is discussed. Finally, the application note provides some recommendations o...

Given a family of Abelian varieties over a positive-dimensional base, we prove that for a sufficiently general curve in the base, every rational section of the family over the curve is contained in a unique rational section over the entire base. 1. Main results sec-intro The starting point for this article is the following theorem. Theorem 1.1. [GHMS05, Theorem 6.2] Let B be a smooth, quasi-pro...

This paper describes a partial reimplementation of Doug Smith's CYPRESS algorithm design system within the Soar problem-solving architecture. The system, CYPRESS-SOAR, reproduces most of CYPRESS' behavior in the synthesis of three divide-and-conquer sorting algorithms from formal specifications. CYPRESS-Soar is based on heuristic search of problem spaces, and uses search to compensate for missi...

Objective: To determine the efficacy of the antihistamine bepotastine on treating nasal symptoms in patients with Japanese cedar and cypress pollinosis, based on two previous studies that looked at bepotastine OD's inhibitory effect on symptom onset after exposure. Design and methods: Randomized double-blind placebo controlled, parallel study. Twenty-eight volunteers with Japanese cedar and cyp...
