  Hypoallergenic Guayule Latex: Research to Commercialization
The guayule plantings were destroyed due to the reavailability of Hevea rubber, a perhaps over-optimistic view of the utility of synthetic rubber, and international political pressure.
Hevea latex and latex products are difficult materials to assay for protein since latex is a cytoplasm that also contains about 30% rubber in the form of microscopic particles.
It seemed likely that the Hevea protein allergens would be absent from guayule latex since the Hevea and guayule are evolutionarily-divergent species and their rubber particle protein complements are dissimilar.

 Ethnobotanical Leaflets
Hevea brasiliensis is the source of virtually all the world's rubber production.
The plants of the Euphorbiaceae family are mostly monoecious herbs, shrubs, and trees, sometimes succulent and cactus-like, and comprise one of the largest families of plants with about 300 genera and 7,500 species that are further characterized by the frequent occurrence of milky sap.
One reason the cultivation of hevea took place in Southeast Asia as oppose to South America was that the strand domesticated in South America was susceptible to South American Leaf Blight caused by Michocyclus ulei.

In Hevea, the branch growth phase effect persisted into the multiplication phase when shoots developed in vitro were used as the source of secondary nodal explants.
In Hevea, the position of secondary nodal explants obtained from the primary shoot was seen to vary in effect depending on growth regulator applications during primary culture.
These results are analyzed in terms of variations in the balance between endogenous growth promoters/inhibitors in the buds, depending on morphogenic stages and the bud position on the branch.
