Assessment of the flammability of ornamental vegetation (particularly hedges) planted around houses is necessary in light of the increasing urbanization of the wildland-urban interfaces (WUIs) and the high fire occurrence in such areas. The structure and flammability of seven of the species most frequently planted as hedges in Provence (southeastern France) were studied at particle level. Spati...

The present paper reports the first record of Diplotomma cedricola (Werner) Etayo in eastern Mediterranean (Creta Island, Greece), being nearest from Corsica (France). This lichen species was found near Iérapreta on decorticated Cupressus sempervirens L. and Pinus brutia Ten. trees. finding constitutes a great expansion distribution range this species.

family cupressaceae is the largest coniferous plant family. essential oils of many species belonging to family cupressaceae are known to have several biological activities specially antimicrobial activity. the essential oils from aerial parts of calocedrus decurrens torr., cupressus sempervirens stricta l. and tetraclinis articulata (vahl) mast. were prepared by hydrodistillation. the chemical ...

BACKGROUND non-injective routes of immunotherapy in respiratory allergy have being proposed as an alternative to conventional immunotherapy. We carried out a study to evaluate the clinical efficacy and effects sublingual immunotherapy (SLIT) in patient with Cupressaceae pollen respiratory allergy. METHODS twenty patients with Cupressaceae pollen (C. sempervirens) rhinoconjunctivitis, mild ast...

this research was carried out in a reforest at shirvanagriculturecollegein two years (2005-2007). the aim of this research was to determine of canopy interception loss, throughfall and stemflow. four trees species were used including pinus nigra, cupressus sempervirens, robinia pseudacacia and platanus orientalis with three replications. the results showed that the amount of canopy interception...

the essential oils of fresh fruits and terminal branches with adherent leaves of cupressus sempervirens l. and c. horizentalis mill., growing in iran, were analyzed by gas chromatography-mass spectroscopy. the oils were also screened for bacteriostatic and fungistatic activities. thirteen and ten components were identified in the essential oils of c. sempervirens and c. horizentalis, respective...

Male and female leaves and fruits of eleven different taxons of Iranian conifers (Cupressus sempervirens var. horizontalis, C. sempervirens var. sempervirens, C. sempervirens cv. Cereifeormis, Juniperus communis subsp. hemisphaerica, J. excelsa subsp. excelsa, J. excelsa subsp. polycarpos, J. foetidissima, J. oblonga, J. sabina, Platycladus orientalis and Taxus baccata) were collected from diff...

Random Amplified Polymorphic DNAs (RAPDs) data were analyzed from eighteen taxa of Cupressus from the eastern hemisphere. The following fourteen taxa were distinct in their RAPDs: Cupressus assamica (India), C. atlantica (Morocco), C. austrotibetica (Tibet), C. cashmeriana (Bhutan), C. chengiana (Sichuan), C. darjeelingensis (India), C. duclouxiana (Yunnan), C. dupreziana (Algeria), C. funebris...
