the rbcl gene sequence from chestnut indicates a slow rate of evolution in the fagaceae.	the nucleotide sequence was obtained for the chloroplast gene coding for the large subunit of the ribulose 1,5-bisphosphate carboxylase (rbcl) of chestnut (castanea sativa mill.), a member of the woody family fagaceae. amplification primers downstream and upstream the rbcl open reading frame are also described. by comparing with other angiosperm sequences, we show that the rate of evolution of rbcl in the family fagaceae is much slower than that observed for the families of annuals analyzed.	1993	8405983
purification, characterization and n-terminal amino acid sequence of a new major allergen from european chestnut pollen--cas s 1.	pollens from trees of the order fagales (e.g. birch, alder, hazel, and hornbeam) all contain one major allergen--the main cause for tree pollen allergy. so far the major allergens from birch (bet v 1), alder (aln g 1), hazel (cor a 1), and hornbeam (car b 1) have been characterized, showing high sequence similarity with each other (1-4). we present the molecular and immunologic characterization of cas s 1, the major allergen from the european chestnut (castanea sativa). from aqueous pollen extra ...	1993	7504464
the pollen calendar of siena (central italy).	the atmospheric pollen count at siena was carried out for 4 years (1978-1981) to determine the average quantity of airborn pollen and the families, genera or species which contribute to such pollen dispersal. the pollination period stretches from february to mid october. the highest pollination period is from may to july when the most important pollen producers are poaceae, urticaceae, pinus, quercus, oleaceae and castanea sativa. also in march there are high pollen production values due to cupr ...	1983	6660174
