In-vitro Seed Germination and Somatic Embryogenesis in Ailanthus excelsa Roxb.: A Medicinal Tree of Heaven

Journal of Experimental Agriculture International
Aim: This study aimed to induce in vitro somatic embryogenesis (SE) from germinated Ailanthus excelsa seedlings and evaluate the effect of various cytokinins on embryo development and shoot induction.

Immunoproteomics of tree of heaven (Ailanthus atltissima) pollen allergens

Journal of Proteomics, 2017
Ailanthus altissima pollen (AAP) is considered as an emerging cause of respiratory allergy in United States, Italy and Iran. However, the allergenic composition of AAP is still unknown and has yet to be characterized. The present study aimed to identify AAP allergens using a proteomics-based approach.

A match made in (tree-of-)heaven: Biological control of the invasive Ailanthus altissima

Poster ​​Abstracts​
Ailanthus altissima (tree-of-heaven) is the worst invasive tree in the United States. The tree exhibits an affinity for disturbed habitats, rapid growth, prolific seed production, and aggressive clonal suckering; these traits make control of A. altissima

Antiproliferative effects of tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima Swingle)

Phytotherapy Research, 2005
Tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima Swingle) was evaluated for its cytotoxic and antiproliferative activities by a bioassay-oriented study. Cytotoxicity observed in HeLa cells was time-dependent; the treatment with 10 microg/mL of the root chloroform extract reduced cell viability by 56% at 24 h and 29% at 48 h of exposure, whereas no effect was ...

Developing traps for the overwintering tree-of-heaven weevils Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus and E. brandti (Coleoptera: Curculionidae).

Pest Management Science, 2021
BACKGROUND The tree-of-heaven root and trunk weevils, Eucryptorrhynchus scrobiculatus (TRW) and E. brandti (TTW) are important boring pests of Ailanthus altissima in China. Overwintering TRW and TTW adults can continue to damage A.

Ailanthus altissima Mill. Swingle (Tree of Heaven)

1996
The genus Ailanthus (family Simaroubaceae) comprises 15 species growing in east and south Asia and in north and east Australia. Ailanthus altissima Mill. Swingle (syn. A. glandulosa Desf.) is a large deciduous tree (Fig. 1) which has been cultured since 1751. It is represented by two varieties: var. erythrocarpa Rehd.

Microsatellites for tree of heaven (Ailanthus altissima)

Molecular Ecology Notes, 2005
AbstractNine (CT)n microsatellites were developed for tree of heaven, Ailanthus altissima, from invasive populations on the Mediterranean islands. These loci had seven to 12 alleles in 96 trees from five islands. Two loci had significant deficits of heterozygotes within islands while the other loci were in Hardy–Weinberg equilibrium, and four pairs of ...

The amazing Tree of Heaven

British Homeopathic Journal, 1983
SummaryAlthough, to date, only six cases were recorded it was considered importantenough to mention them because of the dramatic response in 100% of patients.Three main symptoms were present in all cases, but the only criterion for inclusionin the trial was a positive Paul Bunnell test (thus confirming the diagnosis).Most homœopaths, including myself ...

Isolation of Phytotoxic Compounds from Tree-of-Heaven (Ailanthus altissima Swingle)

Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2003
The aqueous root extract of Ailanthus altissima showed allelopathic activity against radish (Raphanus sativus L. cv. "Saxa"), garden cress (Lepidium sativum L.), and purslane (Portulaca oleracea L.) seeds. A bioassay-oriented purification of active extracts, chromatographic fractions, and compounds demonstrated dose-dependent activity on germination ...

Evidence for allelopathy by tree-of-heaven (Ailanthus altissima)

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 1990
Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle contains one or more phytotoxic compounds in roots and leaves. Activity is higher in roots, where it occurs primarily in the bark. Powdered root bark and leaflets strongly inhibited growth of garden cress (Lepidium sativum L.) when mixed with soil in Petri dishes (ID50 values=0.03 g root bark, 0.6 g leaflet/dish ...
