Relationship Between Testosterone and Movement Patterns in Male Asian Black Bear (Ursus thibetanus)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Comparisons of mean fecal testosterone metabolite concentrations (mFTM) and behavioral variables between the breeding (May–July) and post‐breeding (August–November) seasons. The asterisks indicate significant differences. ABSTRACT In male mammals, reproduction and reproductive behavior are strongly influenced by testosterone. While some species exhibit

Molecular cloning of the second major allergen, Cry j II, from Japanese cedar pollen [PDF]

, 1994
Cloning of a cDNA from Cry j II, the second major allergen from Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica) pollen, is described. An isolated Cry j II cDNA contained an open reading frame coding for 514 amino acid residues.

Comparative Analysis of Fungal Spore Flora Among Birds, Insects and Air in a Temperate Japanese Forest

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 1, January 2026.
Birds, insects and air each host distinct fungal spore communities in a Japanese temperate forest; birds and insects act as selective vectors, while air provides maximal diversity. Our study highlights the importance of analysing multiple taxa to understand ecosystem‐level fungal spore dispersal and interactions.

Collembolan community in broad-leaved forests and in conifer stands of Cryptomeria japonica in Central Japan Comunidade de Colêmbolos em florestas decíduas e em plantações da conífera Cryptomeria japonica no Japão central

Pesquisa Agropecuária Brasileira, 2009
Collembolan communities in conifer plantations (Japanese cedar, Cryptomeria japonica) and secondary deciduous broad-leaved forests of varying ages were investigated to determine the extent to which forest conversion (broad-leaved to coniferous) affects ...

Relative Importance of Resource and Condition Niche for Invertebrates in Water‐Filled Treeholes

Freshwater Biology, Volume 71, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Water‐filled treeholes offer an ideal system to disentangle the roles of resource availability and abiotic conditions in community assembly. This study hypothesized that niches related to consumable resources and microhabitat conditions play distinct roles in shaping community structure, with niche differentiation being more strongly ...

Insights into the Biotechnology and Genetics of Sugi (Cryptomeria japonica, Japanese Cedar), a Model Conifer Tree

The Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica), also known as sugi, is one of the most important trees in Japanese forests. It covers 44% of artificial forests, spanning approximately 4.5 million ha.

Soil pH modulates microbial nitrogen allocation in soil via compositional and metabolic shifts across forests in Japan

iMetaOmics, Volume 2, Issue 4, December 2025.
This study reveals how soil pH regulates microbial N allocation in forest soils across Japan. We show that microbial abundance controls the overall rate of N cycling, while microbial composition and metabolic potential determine whether ammonium is released or retained.

The System for Assessment of the Japanese Cedar Forest Resources Using Space Image Data [PDF]

Сибирский лесной журнал, 2014
The volume of Japanese cedar (Cryptomeria japonica (Thunb. Ex L. f.) D. Don), «sugi» in Japanese) plantations was estimated by using the Japanese satellite ALOS (AVNIR-2, PRISM) to identify sugi plantations as a forest resource.
