	Sequoia - LoveToKnow 1911
		SEQUOIA, a genus of conifers, allied to Taxodium and Cryptomeria, forming one of several surviving links between the firs and the cypresses.
		sempervirens, on which the genus was originally founded by Stephan Endlicher, abounds on the Pacific coast from the southern borders of Oregon southward to about 12 m.
		The bark, of nearly the same tint as that of the redwood, is extremely thick and is channelled towards the base with vertical furrows; at the root the ridges often stand out in buttress-like projections.

	Sequoia sempervirens description (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10)
		Sequoia, like all of the Cupressaceae, is cladoptosic: dead foliage falls with the accompanying shoot, rather than as individual leaves [Dr. Linda B. Brubaker].
		Redwoods (Sequoia sempervirens and Sequoiadendron giganteum) are the state tree of California (Watson 1993).
		The sequoias (including Sequoia and Sequoiadendron) were another group, like Metasequoia, first known from the fossil record, although fossil material was not formally named until Steinhauera Presl 1838, ten years after Lambert described this species as Taxodium sempervirens (Hartesveldt et al.

		Once widespread in temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, the trees were almost exterminated by the ice sheets of the glacial ages.
		Although the sequoias are protected in Kings Canyon, Redwood, Sequoia, and Yosemite national parks and Giant Sequoia National Monument, their existence elsewhere is threatened by exploitation.
		The sequoia is classified in the division Pinophyta, class Pinopsida, order Coniferales, family Taxodiaceae.

	Floridata: Sequoia sempervirens
		Sequoia is a monotypic genus in the baldcypress or Taxodium family, an ancient group of conifers that once shared the landscape with dinosaurs.
		The genus is named in honor of Sequoiah (1770-1843), the son of a British merchant and a Cherokee woman, who became a Cherokee chief and created an alphabet for his people's language.
		Sempervirens is from the Latin for "always alive" (because it is evergreen).

	Trees Of Mystery
		Once found almost world wide, their natural range is now restricted to the foggy coastal belt of Northern California (the sequoia sempervirens), a strip in the Sierra Nevada mountains of sequoiadendron gigantia and a small group of meta sequoia (Dawn Redwood) in a remote valley in China.
		They are classified as three separate genera: Coastal Redwood (Sequoia sempervirens), Sierra Redwood (Sequoiadendron gigantea) and the Dawn Redwood (metasequoia or glyptostroboides) The metasequoia was first found as a fossil by a Japanese botanist in China in 1941.
		The "Sequoia" part of Seqouia sempervirens and Sequoiadendron gigantea is in honor of the great Cherokee patriarch of the Cherokee written language, Sequoia.

	Ethylene evolution by juvenile and adult developmental phases of Sequoia sempervirens shoots cultured in vitro
		This investigation was undertaken to determine whether the ubiquitous phytohormone ethylene might also have a role in phase change, inasmuch as it has been associated with diverse growth processes (Buddendorf-Joosten and Woltering, 1994; Dimasi-Theriou and Economou, 1995; Magdalita et al., 1997; Nour and Thorpe, 1994).
		Earlier studies established that Sequoia sempervirens shoots cultured in vitro were extremely well suited for morphological, physiological and molecular biology investigations of developmental phase change of trees (Huang et al., 1992 and 1995).
		sempervirens shoot cultures were correlated with levels of endogenously generated ethylene, we were unable to establish a cause and effect relationship.

		Early efforts at description and nomenclature were somewhat contentious with respect to the two major kinds of California redwood, but the coast redwood was ultimately named Sequoia sempervirens by Stephan Endlicher (left).
		The specific epithet, sempervirens, refers to the foliage, which is evergreen, in contrast to the deciduous needles of Taxodium.
		Coast redwoods are native to a narrow coastal strip (never more than 40 miles in width) in California, extending from the general vicinity of Palo Alto in the south to almost the Oregon border in the north.
