BACKGROUND The presence of profilin-specific IgE antibodies is a cause of cross-reactivity between botanically-unrelated allergen sources. Recently, the association between Platanus acerifolia pollinosis and plant-derived food allergy has been described. The aim of this study was to ascertain whether the P. acerifolia profilin is involved in such cross-reactivity. METHODS Twenty-three patient...

Background: Although the small clinical relevance of trees in pollinosis, as compared to other plants, is well known, in Barcelona the role of the plane tree (Platanus acerifolia), the most numerous tree species in the city, is significant. We have carried our a clinical and immunological study of the hypersensitivity to the pollen of Platanus acerifolia (hybrida) in Barcelona in order to asses...

from Lolium perenne, Olea europaea, Artemisia vulgaris, Parietaria judaica and Platanus acerifolia.(Figure 1). Oral challenge test with raw cardoon produced pruritus in mouth and lips swelling 30 min after the ingestion whereas oral challenge with cooked cardoon did not produce any kind of symptomatology. We report a case of cardoon allergy confirmed by positive results in in vivo and in vitro ...

We report here the whole-genome shotgun sequence of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens strain UASWS BA1, isolated from inner wood tissues of a decaying Platanus × acerifolia tree. This strain proved to be antagonistic to several plant pathogenic fungi and oomycetes and can be developed as a biological control agent in agriculture.

MicroRNAs (miRNAs) play important regulatory roles in development and stress responses in plants. Lead (Pb) is a non-essential element that is highly toxic to living organisms. Platanus acerifolia is grown as a street tree in cities throughout temperate regions for its importance in improving the urban ecological environment. MiRNAs that respond to abiotic stresses have been identified in plant...

Transcription and alternative splicing (AS) are now appreciated in plants, but few studies have examined the effects of changing ploidy on transcription AS. In this study, we showed that artificially autododecaploid plants London plane (Platanus × acerifolia (Aiton) Willd) had flowers relative to their hexaploid progenitors. Transcriptome analysis based full-length Oxford Nanopore Technologies ...

The Oriental Plane Tree (Platanus Orientalis), not to be confused with the better known London Plane Tree (Platanus Acerifolia), is one of Europe’s longest-lived trees. A native of SE Europe and Asia Minor, it is occasionally found in British parks and gardens, having been cultivated there since the sixteenth century. It can reach 100 feet in height and grows well in open ground, its branches, ...

The identification of mutants in model plant species has led to the isolation of the floral homeotic function genes that play crucial roles in flower organ specification. However, floral homeotic C-function genes are rarely studied in basal eudicots. Here, we report the isolation and characterization of the AGAMOUS (AG) orthologous gene (PaAG) from a basal eudicot London plane tree (Platanus ac...

The effect of nighttime lighting on the anatomical and morphological structure content photosynthetic pigments in leaves Tilia cordata, Aesculus hippocastanum, Platanus acerifolia was estimated example garden-park street plantings Kyiv. At experimental sites, level illumination soil surface temperature during day night periods were examined. studied using transmission electron microscopy. (chlo...
