Dormancy release and germination of Taxus yunnanensis seeds during wet sand storage. [PDF]
AbstractDormancy is an innate constraint on germination that occurs across all life forms. In this study, we investigated the seed dormancy release and germination characters of Taxus yunnanensis by exploring the seed morphology, permeability, germination inhibitors, endogenous hormones, and embryo germination in vitro during wet sand storage.

Thrombocytopenia Caused by a Tea Beverage of Taxus yunnanensis (Chinese Yew). [PDF]
A 53-year-old woman presented at our hospital due to nasal bleeding and petechiae with profound thrombocytopenia (0.4×109/L). Her platelet count returned to the normal range immediately following a platelet transfusion. In this case, tea brewed from Taxus yunnanensis was the only suspected agent ingested prior to the onset of thrombocytopenia while all

Antiallergic Activity of Aqueous Extracts and Constituents of Taxus yunnanensis
The H2O, H2O/MeOH (1:1) extracts from the wood of Taxus yunnanensis showed a remarkable inhibitory effect on induced histamine release from the human basophilic cell line, KU812. The eleven constituents purified from the wood extracts of Taxus yunnanensis were tested by an in vitro histamine release inhibition assay. Among them, secoisolarciresinol and
