| Abstract | Szársomlyó Hill is a valuable nature reserve, where the tree of heaven has expanded its area in the last decades. In 2003 and 2004, the Directorate of the Duna-Dráva National Park conducted a study aiming the eradication of Ailanthus altissima. In two grassland communities of the southern hillside, all Ailanthus individuals were treated with foliar spray in 15 experimental plots. Two herbicides were applied in four solvents. The method was successful only on less then half of the treated individuals. The plots with higher Ailanthus density must receive repeated treatments. Despite the careful spraying, natural vegetation suffered considerable changes in total cover, and moderate alteration of the species composition. A year after the treatment, the regeneration of the grasslands is obvious. |
