Abstract

Ginkgo biloba (maidenhair tree — family Ginkgoaceae) is a woody and dioecious species appreciated for its ornamental value and tolerance to air pollution (Christensen 1972; Rohr 1989) and it is widely cultivated in urban areas all over the world. Moreover, it is a source of unique compounds showing interesting pharmacological properties (see Carrier et al. 1994).
