(1–3).

It has been suggested that commercial laundering might be better able to provide such conditions. Using dataloggers embedded in duvets, temperature p...

Pollination Biology of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (Tree-of-Heaven) in the Mid- Atlantic United States

To date little information has been collected on the pollination biology of Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (tree-of-heaven), an invasive exotic in the U.S. This study was conducted to determine the insect pollinator fauna visiting A. altissima and to study general pollinator visitation patterns associated with the tree’s nectar profile.

Purification and Properties of Chlorophyllase from Ailanthus altissima (Tree-of-Heaven).

Chlorophyllase from Ailanthus altissima leaves has been purified 63-fold by a combination of heat treatment, ultracentrifugation, gel filtration, and chromatography on diethylaminoethyl cellulose. While the enzyme is inhibited to some degree by Triton X-100, a modification of the assay procedure of Klein and Vishniac has been shown to be far superior to the use of aqueous acetone systems. The e...
