(2012), http://dx.doi.org/1 Swamps, peatlands, and other wetland ecosystems can store vast amounts of carbon in organicallyderived peat soils. Wildfires during severe droughts can produce smoldering combustion in these soils, releasing large quantities of carbon to the atmosphere and causing dramatic changes at the local ...

Vegetation analysis in ten central Florida cypress (Taxodium distichurn) swamps was undertaken to determ•ne the response of woody species composition to clearcutting. Line transects hrough swamps that had been harvested by clearcutting within the last 5 years demonstrated that all but one of these swamps are likely to recover their original species composition and a normal stem density. Cypress...

The relevance of studying the growth and development North American cypress tree species in Omsk region is due to short period their use urban landscaping. issues effective production planting material these rocks West Siberian have not been fully studied. landscaping city will expand range conifers reduce anthropogenic load. research devoted study effect stimulants on vegetative reproduction b...

To identify genetic diversity, genetic structure and the relationship among accessions, and further establish a core collection for the long-term breeding of cypress (Cupressus funebris Endl.), the genealogy of breeding parents was reconstructed using simple sequence repeat (SSR) molecular markers. Seventeen SSR markers were used to detect molecular polymorphisms among 290 cypress accessions fr...

The cypress family (Cupressaceae) possesses highly rearranged plastomes that lack a pair of large inverted repeats typically found in land plants. A few cypress species have been reported to contain isomeric plastomes, but whether the existence of isomeric plastomes is ubiquitous in the family remains to be investigated with a broader taxon sampling. In this study, we sequenced the complete pla...

The behavior of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) and Japanese cypress (Chamaecyparis obtusa) pollens in an urban area was examined through the measurements of the dispersion characteristics at the various sampling locations in both outdoor and indoor environments. Airborne pollens were counted continuously for three months during the Japanese cedar pollen and Japanese cypress seasons in 20...

Cypress canker caused by Seiridium cardinale was controlled by benomyl and chlorothalonil but not by tribasic copper sulfate. Cypress canker has been present in California since 1927 where it has caused considerable damage to planted Monterey cypress, Cupressus macrocarpa (6). The popularity of this California native range and usually canker disease appears, but some uninformed people still pla...
