Establishment and Distribution of Ailanthus Altissima in the Urban Environment. Pan, E. & Bussak, N. Journal of Environmental Horticulture, 4(1):1–4, 1986.
abstract   bibtex   
An Ailanthus altissima (Miller) Swingle population in Ithaca, New York was found to be comprised of individuals from all size classes suggesting its continued potential for regeneration. Dispersal of seeds as intact panicles and strong root suckering contributed to its grouped formation in urban habitats. Ailanthus inhabited a range of urban sites that had a limited amount of exposed surface soil. The successful growth of Ailanthus into such sites was attributed to its simple rope-like lateral roots.
