Growth and age dynamics of juvenile plants of a dominant shrub in North American drylands

open access: yesEcosphere
Long‐lived perennial species in drylands tolerate a range of environmental conditions over their lifespan, but young plants are more vulnerable to stressful conditions than mature plants.

Weather and leaf age separately contribute to temporal shifts in phyllosphere fungal community structure in sagebrush

open access: yesEcosphere
Microbial communities living on plant leaves can positively or negatively influence plant health and, by extension, can impact whole ecosystems. Most research into the leaf microbiome consists of snapshots, and little is known about how microbial ...

The potential of novel native plant materials for the restoration of novel ecosystems

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2015
Extensive ecological change has been sustained by many dryland ecosystems throughout the world, resulting in conversion to so-called novel ecosystems. It is within such ecological contexts that native plant materials destined for ecological applications ...

Data from: Deep sequencing of amplicons reveals widespread intraspecific hybridization and multiple origins of polyploidy in big sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata)

open access: yes, 2013
PREMISE OF THE STUDY: Hybridization has played an important role in the evolution and ecological adaptation in diploid and polyploid plants. Artemisia tridentata (Asteraceae) tetraploids are extremely widespread and of great ecological importance.

Studies of a New Hybrid Taxon in the Artemisia tridentata (Asteraceae: Anthemideae) Complex

open access: yes, 2013
Members of the Artemisia tridentata complex (ASTERACEAE; Anthemideae: Artemisia subgen. Tridentatae) have adapted to changing environmental conditions through geographic migration, introgression, and hybridization.

Above‐ and belowground microenvironmental attributes cluster to varying degrees around Wyoming big sagebrush canopies

open access: yesEcosphere
Microsites beneath shrub canopies in dryland landscapes characterized by a mosaic of bare ground and patchy vegetation are often considered critical for the establishment of understory species.

Evaluation of a drone to map and monitor critical habitat features for the Sage Thrasher (Oreoscoptes montanus)

open access: yesDrone Systems and Applications
Habitat destruction is the leading cause of global biodiversity loss. To recover endangered species requires knowing the habitat elements that are essential to their survival, defined as critical habitat.
