Fingerprint analysis and pharmacological evaluation of Ailanthus altissima

International Journal of Molecular Medicine, 2018
Ailanthus altissima (AA) has been used in various anticancer prescriptions and showed excellent therapeutic effect. However, there is no report on the method of quality control and the anti-glioblastoma activity. In this study, we used a combinative method approach consisting of chromatographic fingerprinting and quantitative methods to analyze quality

Rapid construction of insect–plant interaction networks via multiplexed long‐fragment DNA metabarcoding and NGS

Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 6, Page 1896-1909, June 2026.
Abstract Molecular identification of insect food webs can accurately reveal complex trophic interactions and serve as a foundation for understanding ecosystem functioning and advancing biodiversity conservation. This process typically involves DNA library construction, high‐throughput sequencing and subsequent steps, including data assembly, annotation,

Effect of Insect Damage on Seed Germination of Black Locust (Robinia pseudoacacia)

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 3, May 2026.
As shown in the figure, the white‐circled black locust seeds absorbed water and swelled, whereas the red‐circled seeds remained unswollen. This observed cryptic seed heteromorphism in germination is likely attributable not only to the development of an impermeable seed coat during maturation but also to physical damage caused by insects. ABSTRACT Black

The Biology, Ecology, Distribution and Management of Two Globally Invasive Weeds: Calotropis procera (Calotrope) and Calotropis gigantea (Giant Calotrope)

Weed Research, Volume 66, Issue 3, May/June 2026.
ABSTRACT Calotropis procera and C. gigantea are emerging as globally invasive plants that can significantly alter ecosystems in areas where they have escaped from attended cultivation. Without effective management, these species can form dense monospecific stands, resulting in severe economic, environmental and social impacts.

Projecting potential distribution of Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus Motschulsky and E. brandti (Harold) under historical climate and RCP 8.5 scenario

Scientific Reports, 2017
Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle and its variant A. altissima var. Qiantouchun are notorious invasive weeds. Two weevils, Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus (ESC) and E. brandti (EBR) are considered as candidates for biological control of A.

Unveiling the Patterns of Wild Bee‐Plant Interactions on a Large and Mostly Unexplored Mediterranean Island (Sardinia, Italy)

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
An extensive survey of wild bee and bee–plant networks in Sardinia (Italy) highlights high species richness and diversity, particularly in mainland agroecosystems. All interaction networks were highly specialized, modular, and not nested, indicating potential ecological vulnerability, though varying across sites and on a temporal scale.
