Restoration through reassembly: evaluating the role of native plants in combatting Chinese tallow
… growth metrics of the non-native, invasive tree, Chinese tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera</em> [L.] Roxb.), hereafter tallow, across different flooding and light regimes, I investigated how restructuring native communities with valuable native species will prevent the reestablishment of tallow. I …

The effects of the invasive exotic Chinese tallow tree (Triadica sebifera) on amphibians and aquatic invertebrates
… environments, with an emphasis on the effect of Chinese tallow (Triadica sebifera) leaf litter on anuran larvae (i.e., frog tadpoles). This question is important to our understanding of how allochthonous inputs to aquatic habitats drive biodiversity in wetlands. It also addresses a timely …

Chinese Tallow Long-Term Impact on Stand Dynamics in a Bottomland Hardwood Forest Following Vegetation Management
<p>Chinese tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera</em> (L.) Small) is an invasive tree known to have negative impacts on bottomland hardwood forests. Chinese tallow is proficient in reproducing and surviving in bottomland hardwood forests because it is more flood and shade tolerant than most native trees. …

THE INFLUENCE OF THE INVASIVE CHINESE TALLOW (TRIADICA SEBIFERA) LEAF LITTER ON AQUATIC CHEMISTRY AND MICROBIAL COMMUNITY COMPOSITION
… and function. The nonnative and invasive plant, Chinese Tallow (<em>Triadica sebifera), </em>has already invaded much of the south eastern US where it is outcompeting native tree species and changing ecosystem diversity in a variety of habitats. Leaf litter from the Chinese tallow has been shown …

Novel Relative Spontaneous Ignition Temperature Determination Using Carbon Dioxide Onset with STA/IR
… of samples from <em>Triadica sebifera </em>(Chinese tallow), <em>Ligustrum sinense </em>(Chinese privet), and <em>Ilex vomitoria </em>(yaupon) plants. Identification of carbon dioxide was successful with a spectral match of 90.2 percent and further used in the determination of relative …
