Herbicide Activity of Extracts from Ailanthus Altissima (Simaroubaceae) [PDF]
The purpose of the present study was to isolate and characterize ailanthone-rich materials from the bark of the deciduous tree Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle and to assess their herbicide activity on selected herbaceous species. Ailanthone-rich fractions were obtained from A. altissima bark by extraction with dichloromethane and ethyl acetate and

Abstract Introduction Afforestation is a key restoration strategy for mitigating land degradation and desertification in semiarid regions. However, evaluating the ecological impacts of tree species used for sustainable dryland restoration is crucial. For example, non‐native tree species may become invasive, with negative effects on native understory ...

Beyond urban introduction hubs: Accounting for rural legacies in plant invasions
Addressing both urban and rural planting legacies in invasion models advances understanding of spread dynamics across landscapes. A transdisciplinary approach that links ecological methods with cultural‐historical perspectives is essential for accessing, interpreting and incorporating historical data into predictive tools.
