A Clinical Study of Japanese Cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) Pollen-Induced Asthma
Background: Grass and birch pollens are known to induce asthma. However there are few reports about other pollen-induced asthma. Japanese cedar is the most common allergen in rhinitis in Japan but is controversial on whether it can provoke asthma ...

Influence of Hydrothermal Treatment on Hemicellulose Structure in Cryptomeria japonica
The influence of hydrothermal treatment (HTT) on the hemicellulose, i.e. glucomannan/galactoglucomannan (GM/GGM) and arabinoglucurono-xylan (AGX) in Japanese cedar was examined using mild temperatures (95 °C and 120 °C) for its kiln drying.

Fish assemblages associated with three types of artificial reefs: density of assemblages and possible impacts on adjacent fish abundance [PDF]
We evaluated the effectiveness of wooden artificial reefs (ARs) as fish habitat. Three types of ARs, made of cedar logs, broadleaf tree logs, and PVC pipes, respectively, were deployed in triplicate at 8-m depth off Maizuru, Kyoto Prefecture, Sea of ...

Comparative in silico analysis of SSRs in coding regions of high confidence predicted genes in Norway spruce (Picea abies) and Loblolly pine (Pinus taeda) [PDF]
Background: Microsatellites or simple sequence repeats (SSRs) are DNA sequences consisting of 1-6 bp tandem repeat motifs present in the genome. SSRs are considered to be one of the most powerful tools in genetic studies.

Segregation distortion for AFLP markers in Cryptomeria japonica.
Segregation of AFLP markers was frequently severely distorted when initial attempts were made to develop a molecular-based linkage map of sugi (Cryptomeria japonica). Only 27 out of 46 AFLP markers detected with combinations of three and four selective nucleotide primers (EcoRI + 3 and MseI + 4) fitted a 1:1 segregation ratio (α > 0.01).

Nitrate-use traits of understory plants as potential regulators of vegetation distribution on a slope in a Japanese cedar plantation [PDF]
[Background and Aims] Plant physiological traits and their relation to soil N availability was investigated as regulators of the distribution of understory shrub species along a slope in a Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) plantation in central Japan.
