Traditional knowledge promotes the protection of large old trees: A case from China's richest biocultural diversity area

People and Nature, Volume 7, Issue 11, Page 2700-2713, November 2025.
Abstract Large old trees are important ecological entities in human settlements, providing cultural values and ecological services that are threatened by current and future changes in global climate, land use and disturbance regimes. Some studies suggest incorporating social and cultural significance into the conservation of large old trees.

Chloroplast population genetics reveals low levels of genetic variation and conformation to the central–marginal hypothesis in Taxus wallichiana var. mairei, an endangered conifer endemic to China

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 9, Issue 20, Page 11944-11956, October 2019., 2019
We detected low levels of chloroplast genetic variation and differentiation in the populations of Taxus wallichiana var. mairei. We identified Hunan and Hubei as major refugia. Our results supported the predictions of the central–marginal hypothesis.

Phytotherapy for Liver Fibrosis: Insights From the Biology of Hepatic Stellate Cells—A Narrative Review

Liver International Communications, Volume 6, Issue 1, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Chronic liver diseases frequently progress to liver fibrosis, characterized by the accumulation of extracellular matrix (ECM) proteins and the formation of fibrous scars. This fibrous tissue disrupts normal liver architecture, impairing its physiological functions.

Transcriptome Sequencing Reveals Regulatory Mechanisms of Taxol Synthesis in Taxus wallichiana var. Mairei

International Journal of Genomics, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
Taxol is one of the most potent and effective anticancer drugs and is originally isolated from Taxus species. To investigate the specific regulatory mechanisms of taxol synthesis in Taxus wallichiana var. mairei, RNA‐seq was conducted to reveal the differences in transcriptional levels between wild type (WT) and “Jinxishan” (JXS), a cultivar selected ...

Population Characteristics of Taxus chinensis var. mairei in Baokang County

International Journal of Ecology, 2013
在保康县南方红豆杉分布比较集中的4个村(仁和村、朱砂村、龙坪村、温坪村)设置样地，采用植物种群野外调查方法研究天然南方红豆杉种群的数量特征、结构特征、性别比例结构。结果表明：调查区内天然南方红豆杉种群内个体为集群分布，且分布密度大；处于幼年的植株最多，占总量的66%；胸径 > 12 cm的立木比较少；当个体高度超过100 cm，种群的大小径级呈正金字塔型；雌雄性比接近1:1，有利于整个种群的稳定发展。 Sample plots were set in four villages (Renhe village, Cinnabar village, Longping village, Wenping village) of Baokang county to research quantitative ...

Antigenotoxic Effects of Biochaga and Dihydroquercetin (Taxifolin) on H2O2‐Induced DNA Damage in Human Whole Blood Cells

Oxidative Medicine and Cellular Longevity, Volume 2019, Issue 1, 2019., 2019
The health benefits of natural products have long been recognized. Consumption of dietary compounds such as supplements provides an alternative source of natural products to those obtained from the diet. There is a growing concern regarding the possible side effects of using different food supplements simultaneously, since their possible interactions ...

Predicting the Potential Distribution of Rare and Endangered Emmenopterys henryi in China Under Climate Change

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 14, Issue 10, October 2024.
We applied Biomod2 and MaxEnt to predict the current and future potential distribution of endangered Emmenopterys henryi in China. The current potential distribution area from Biomod2 is 176.53 × 104 km2, which is larger than from MaxEnt. Moreover, climate change is expected to have an adverse effect on its potential distribution.
