Alternative Approaches and Plant-Based Remedies for Livestock Health Management Among the Batswana of Southern Africa: A Review. [PDF]

open access: yesChem Biodivers
ABSTRACT Due to limited access to, and the high cost of conventional veterinary services, Batswana communities often rely on ethnoveterinary practices for livestock health management. This review provides an in‐depth analysis on the ethnoveterinary uses, biological properties and safety assessment of plants utilised in livestock husbandry. A systematic

Transplanted sagebrush “wildlings” exhibit higher survival than greenhouse-grown tubelings yet both recruit new plants [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution
Background Land uses such as crop production, livestock grazing, mining, and urban development have contributed to degradation of drylands worldwide. Loss of big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata) on disturbed drylands across the western U.S.

In vitro Regeneration, Rooting, and Cloning of Artemisia tridentata

open access: yes, 2020
Artemisia tridentata (big sagebrush) is an ecologically important shrub found in western North America. In vitro techniques can be applied to big sagebrush for the purpose of studying gene function, genotypic and phenotypic plasticity studies, cloning, genotypic preservation, and restoration.

Spectrophotometry of Artemisia tridentata to Quantitatively Determine Subspecies☆

open access: yesRangeland Ecology & Management, 2018
Abstract Ecological restoration is predicated on our abilities to discern plant taxa. Taxonomic identification is a first step in ensuring that plants are appropriately adapted to the site. An example of the need to identify taxonomic differences comes from big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata).

A draft genome provides hypotheses on drought tolerance in a keystone plant species in Western North America threatened by climate change

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, 2021
Climate change presents distinct ecological and physiological challenges to plants as extreme climate events become more common. Understanding how species have adapted to drought, especially ecologically important nonmodel organisms, will be crucial to ...

Neutrophil Immunomodulatory Activity of Farnesene, a Component of Artemisia dracunculus Essential Oils

open access: yesPharmaceuticals, 2022
Despite their reported therapeutic properties, not much is known about the immunomodulatory activity of essential oils present in Artemisia species. We isolated essential oils from the flowers and leaves of five Artemisia species: A.

Influence of directional side of sagebrush canopies and interspaces on microhabitats

open access: yesBasic and Applied Ecology, 2023
Shrubs can contribute to spatial heterogeneity in plant communities by creating distinct microsites under their canopies compared to between their canopies (interspaces).

Effects of a Companion Plant on the Formation of Mycorrhizal Propagules in Artemisia tridentata Seedlings☆

open access: yesRangeland Ecology & Management, 2020
Inoculation of seedlings with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) can increase their establishment after outplanting. The success of this practice depends partly on the extent of root colonization and abundance of AMF propagules in the outplanted ...
