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).

Five Hesperocyparis (Cupressus) abramsiana groves were analyzed by Inter-Simple Sequence Repeats (ISSRs). ISSRs analyses revealed geographical differentiation among the groves (= Silba's subspecies) with the Butano Ridge grove being the most distinct in both ISSRs and terpenoids. Combined ISSR and terpenoid data support the recognition of Hesperocyparis. abramsiana var. abramsiana and Hesperocy...

A new species of conifer was recently discovered in northern Vietnam. In a preliminary phylogenetic analysis of morphological data a possible sister species, Chamaecyparis nootkatensis (D. Don) Spach, was identified; however, because of the presumed phylogenetic remoteness of these two species to the remainder of the Cupressaceae, a new genus-Xanthocyparis-was described to accommodate both spec...

Abnormal' cones found irt Cupressus sempervirens include bisexual cones and double female and male cones. They are very infrequent, but there are individual trees ~th a tendency· to produce· ~\Jch cones. We, suggest that these cones reflect changes in normal hohnonal balance. keY, words: Cupressus sempervirens, bisexilal con~s, cones.

Phylogenetic comparisons of three nuclear DNA gene regions (nrDNA(ITS), 4-coumarate: CoA ligase, abscisic acid-insensitive 3) and a chloroplast region (petN-psbM) show that the Western Hemisphere cypresses (Hesperocyparis) is a well-supported clade quite separated from the Eastern Hemisphere cypresses (Cupressus). Based on these new data and previous data, a new genus, Hesperocyparis, is erecte...

The heartwoods of tree species containing tropolone compounds in their extractive components are classed among the more durable woods. Two new tropolones, namely, alpha-thujaplicinol and pygmaein from the heartwood of Cupressus pygmaea, were also found to exhibit strong fungitoxic properties active against a number of wood-destroying fungi. The hydroxyl group appears to be the functional groupi...

UNLABELLED Allergen immunotherapy dates back to 1911 and has been used successfully to treat large numbers of patients throughout the last century. CASE REPORT a 66-year-old woman presented with symptoms of allergic rhinitis and asthma due to sensitization to Cupressus arizonica. Specific immunotherapy was prescribed as a continuous 2-year treatment with a depot preparation of standarized and...

BACKGROUND AND AIMS Hydration, rupture and exine opening due to the sudden and large expansion of intine are typical of taxoid-type pollen grains. A hemispheric outgrowth external to the exine was observed on Cupressus and Juniperus pollen grains before the intine swelling and exine release. However, the actual existence of this permanent or temporary structure and its precise role in pollen hy...
