• Biological Flora of the British Isles: Robinia pseudoacacia (2013, methodology): “The tree Ailanthus altissima has been shown to coexist with R. pseudoacacia in the native range of the latter, but competition trials revealed negative effects of A. altissima on R. pseudoacacia (Call & Nilsen 2003, 2005).”
• Traditional coppice forest management drives the invasion of Ailanthus altissima and Robinia pseudoacacia into deciduous forests (2013, background): “Due to the relatively short cycle of coppice forests, the time of forest development is too short for native species to out-shade the light-demanding non-natives, like it was observed for longer periods of forest development (Huntley, 1990; Call and Nilsen, 2003; Motta et al., 2009).”
• Assessing potential biological control of the invasive plant, tree-of-heaven, Ailanthus altissima (2006, background): “Disturbances may enhance the invasiveness of tree-of-heaven and its impacts on the native plant community (Call & Nilsen 2003 ).”
• Biological flora of Central Europe: Ailanthus altissima (Mill.) Swingle (2007, background): “These may be human-induced, such as timber harvests (Call and Nilsen, 2003) or management of other non-natives species (Webb et al., 2001), or can result from natural gap openings due to heavy storms (Knapp and Canham, 2000) or insect herbivory on native species (Orwig and Foster, 1998).”
• Spatial patterns of regeneration in managed uneven-aged ponderosa pine/Douglas-fir forests of Western Montana, USA (2006, methodology): “Clumped distributions of regeneration have likewise been reported in managed stands of Picea abies, Abies alba, and Fagus sylvatica (Fröhlich and Quednau, 1995) and in Ailanthus altissima and Robinia pseudoacacia (Call and Nilsen, 2003).”
• Potential of remote sensing to predict species invasions (2015, background): “…certain times of year), and controlling for the effects of vegetation structural characteristics (Chopping, 2011; Kempeneers et al., 2008; Pisek et al., 2011; Zeng et al., 2009) as well as identifying spatial associations between invasive and closely-related native species (Call and Nilsen, 2003).”
