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

A new quassinoid, ailantinol H, from Ailanthus altissima.

A new quassinoid, ailantinol H, was isolated from the aerial parts of Ailanthus altissima. The structure was elucidated based on spectral evidence.

Allelopathic potential of tree of heaven(ailanthus altissima swingle)

Biological flora of Central Europe: Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle

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...

The embryology of Ailanthus altissima (Simaroubaceae): an invasive species from Iran

Simaroubaceae is a monophyletic family in the order Sapindales with 22 genera and 109 species. Ailanthus altissima (Mill) Swingle, also known as the tree of heaven, is a highly invasive species, which systematically belongs to Simaroubaceae. Reproductive characteristics are essential for the deployment and maintenance of invasive species in new environments and examination of the reproductive s...

Assessing current and projected suitable habitats for tree-of-heaven along the Appalachian Trail.

The invasion of ecosystems by non-native species is a major driver of biodiversity loss worldwide. A critical component of effective land management to control invasion is the identification and active protection of areas at high risk of future invasion. The Appalachian Trail Decision Support System (A.T.-DSS) was developed to inform regional natural resource management by integrating remote se...
