Biological flora of Central Europe: Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle
نویسندگان
چکیده
Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven), Simaroubaceae, is an early successional tree, native to China and North Vietnam, which has become invasive in Europe and on all other continents except Antarctica. It is most abundant in urban habitats and along transportation corridors, but can also invade natural habitats. This paper reviews the literature on the morphology, distribution, ecology, habitat requirements, population biology, genetics, physiology, impacts, management and uses of this species. r 2007 Rübel Foundation, ETH Zürich.

Cell suspension cultures of Ailanthus altissima (Simaroubaceae) were cultivated under illumination and in the dark. Under influence of a yeast elicitor and cell wall preparations of various Phytophthora species, respectively, alkaloid formation was stimulated. Canthin-6-one and 1methoxycanthin-6-one accumulation could be increased up to a 125-fold and 2.5-fold, respectively within 96 h by elici...

متن کاملPhenylpropionamides, Piperidine, and Phenolic Derivatives from the Fruit of Ailanthus altissima.
Four novel compounds-two phenylpropionamides, one piperidine, and one phenolic derivatives-were isolated and identified from the fruit of a medicinal plant, Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (Simaroubaceae), together with one known phenylpropionamide, 13 known phenols, and 10 flavonoids. The structures of the new compounds were elucidated as 2-hydroxy-N-[(2-O-β-d-glucopyranosyl)phenyl]propion...
