A high resolution palynological study of the Holocene vegetational development of central Holderness, eastern Yorkshire, with particular emphasis on the detection of prehistoric human activity. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2000
Compared to upland areas and Scotland, the Holocene vegetational history of lowland England is poorly known. This is particularly the case for the region of Holdemess, eastern Yorkshire, where only a low number of poor temporal resolution pollen diagrams

Drought Risk in Mango and Avocado Orchards: Insights Into Plant Water Relations and Irrigation‐Related Agronomic Solutions

open access: yesIrrigation and Drainage, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Climate change is making water availability more uncertain, with growing consequences for the productivity and long‐term sustainability of tropical and subtropical fruit orchards. Mangifera indica L. and Persea americana Mill. both require large amounts of water to sustain growth and productivity.

Beyond Tradition: An Integrated Toxicological, Ecological, and Public Health Perspective on Aristolochic Acids

open access: yesJournal of Applied Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aristolochia species have long been used in traditional medicine for their presumed anti‐inflammatory, analgesic and antimicrobial properties. However, extensive toxicological and epidemiological evidence now demonstrates that these plants contain aristolochic acids (AAs) I and II, highly potent nephrotoxic, genotoxic, and carcinogenic ...

ADP-glucose pyrophosphyrylase from Pollen of Pinus thunbergii

open access: yes, 1990
P(論文)Properties of ADP-glucose pyrophosphorylase from pollen of Pinus thunbergii were determined and the enzyme had an immportant relation to soluble type starch synthase of the pollen in the point of a pathway of starch synthesis with ADP-glucose as a ...

Large‐Scale Evaluation of Traditional Chinese Medicines Reveals Potential PPARγ Modulators for Type 2 Diabetes Management

open access: yesJournal of Clinical Laboratory Analysis, EarlyView.
Identifying novel treatments for diabetic management is always a competitive research topic all over the world. PPAR‐γ is one of the key regulators involved in glucose and lipid metabolism and improves insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis. This study investigated the impacts of 639 traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) on PPAR‐γ gene promoter ...

Estimating the Uncertainty in Airborne Birch Pollen Modelling

open access: yes
Background More than 25% of adults in Europe suffer from pollinosis, although variability across countries might be quite large. In Belgium, at least ~10% of people develop allergies due to birch pollen.

Pollen Morphology of Crucianella L. (Rubiaceae) Based on Light and Scanning Electron Microscope Data and Implications for Taxonomy

open access: yesMicroscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.

Decoupling climate and human impacts on the nitrogen cycle during the Irish Bronze Age

open access: yesJournal of Quaternary Science, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Disentangling climate variability and human activity in past nitrogen cycling is key to understanding ecosystems. Previous studies in Ireland observed a widespread, permanent shift in terrestrial nitrogen cycling during Later Prehistory, potentially linked to intensifying land‐use.

What drives the long-term changes in airborne birch and grass pollen levels in Belgium?

open access: yes
Background Airborne pollen may contribute to increased respiratory allergies. In Belgium, ~10% of people are sensitive to birch pollen and ~15% to grass pollen.

Natural and anthropogenic forest fires recorded in the Holocene pollen record from a Jinchuan peat bog, northeastern China

open access: yes, 2008
Pollen and charcoal particles from a Jinchuan peat (northeastern China) were examined to investigate the fire origin and interaction between climate, vegetation, fire and human activity during the Holocene.
