Soil legacy for urban parks management: the case of the invasive plant Ailanthus altissima

This study investigates the influence of soil legacies from different urban plant species on the germination of the invasive tree Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven). Soil samples and seeds were collected from different urban parks and plant species in Granada, Spain, representing diverse vegetatio...

Descripción
Sumario:This study investigates the influence of soil legacies from different urban plant species on the germination of the invasive tree Ailanthus altissima (tree of heaven). Soil samples and seeds were collected from different urban parks and plant species in Granada, Spain, representing diverse vegetation and soil conditions. Experimental germination trials were conducted in a greenhouse over 30 days to assess how soils affected Ailanthus seed germination. Results reveal differential effects depending on soil origin and plant species legacy, with implications for managing and controlling this invasive species through ecological restoration and soil management strategies.
