Seedlings of Taxodium distichum L., Quercus lyrata Walt. and Q. falcata var. pagodaefolia Ell. were grown for 22 days in a rhizotron system providing two soil redox potential regimes, +170 mV (low Eh) and +560 mV (high Eh). Leaf chlorophyll concentration and gas exchange, root alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) activity, root and leaf ethylene production, and growth and biomass partitioning were measu...

The title compound, 6,7-de-hydro-royleanone, C20H26O3 [systematic name: (4bS)-3-hy-droxy-2-isopropyl-4b,8,8-trimethyl-4b,5,6,7,8,8a-hexa-hydro-phenanthrene-1,4-dione] was isolated from Taxodium distichum (L.) Rich. The compound crystallizes in the space group P21. The crystal structure features two O-H⋯O hydrogen bonds, forming chains along the [010] direction.

Se describe una nueva especie, Cecidomyia lamellata Gagné, de adultos de ambos sexos, pupas y larvas recolectados de la resina en ramas engrosadas de ciprés, Taxodium distichum (L.) Rich. (Taxodiaceae) en Fort Pierce, Florida. Algunos caracteres anatómicos de la especie nueva son distintos de los limites conocidos para este género. El ciprés es el primero hospedero conocido de Cecidomyia que no...

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...

the present study aimed to assess pure planted species (i.e., alnus subcordata l., poplus deltoids l., taxadium distichum l. rich) and a mixed natural forest (i.e., dominated by quercus castaneifolia c. a. mey. - carpinus betulus l. - parrotia persica c. a. meyer) on basis of some soil quality indices in mazandaran province, northern iran. sixteen samples per stand were taken from the top 10 cm...

BACKGROUND Recently, Abeliophyllum distichum Nakai (A. distichum) has been reported to exert the inhibitory effect on angiotensin converting enzyme. However, no specific pharmacological effects from A. distichum have been described. We performed in vitro study to evaluate anti-cancer properties of A. distichum and then elucidate the potential mechanisms. METHODS Cell viability was measured by...
