Microsatellite markers for Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass)
Molecular Ecology Notes, 2002Abstract Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass) is a flourishing invasive weed in the western United States. The objective of our study is to characterize its genetic diversity. We made a B. tectorum genomic library in lambda phage and screened approximately 4000 clones for poly CA and poly CT dinucleotide repeats.

The Biology of Downy Brome (Bromus tectorum)
Weed Science, 1984Downy brome (Bromus tectorumL. # BROTE), also known as cheatgrass, downy chess, broncograss, Mormon oats, and junegrass, was introduced into the United States from Europe, apparently during the middle of the nineteenth century (11, 21). According to Mack (23), downy brome entered British Columbia, Washington, and Utah around 1890; and by 1928 it had ...

Phenology constrains opportunistic growth response in Bromus tectorum L.
Plant Ecology, 2011Seasonal resource availability may act as a constraint on plant phenology and thereby influence the range of growth responses observed among populations of annual species, especially those occupying a wide range of environments. We compared a mesic and a xeric population of the non-native, annual grass, Bromus tectorum, to examine phenology in response

Mapping Downy Brome (Bromus tectorum) Using Multidate AVIRIS Data
Weed Science, 2008Abstract Invasive plants impose threats to both natural and managed ecosystems. Downy brome is among the most aggressive invasive weeds that has infested the shrub-steppe ecoregion of eastern Washington. Hyperspectral remote sensing has potential for early detection and for monitoring the spread of downy brome—information that is essential for ...

Weed Technology, 1999
The genusBromusin the Poaceae includes 100 species of annuals, biennials, and perennials. Several species are important as forage crops while others are grown as ornamentals. It is distributed in the temperate areas and in tropical mountainous regions (Hyam and Parkhurst 1995).Bromus tectorumL., downy brome, an introduced annual, occurs throughout most

Community Ecology of Fungal Pathogens on Bromus tectorum
2016Bromus tectorum L. (cheatgrass or downy brome) presents a rich resource for soil microorganisms because of its abundant production of biomass, seeds, and surface litter. Many of these organisms are opportunistic saprophytes, but several fungal species regularly found in B. tectorum stands function as facultative or obligate pathogens.

Demography of Bromus Tectorum in Artemisia Communities
1985Bromus tectorum has successfully invaded sagebrush (Artemisia) grasslands in western North America within the past century. The population dynamics of this species under drought conditions and during relatively wet seasons are described. Persistence of populations is ensured by means of dormant seed reserves in the soil.

Cheatgrass (Bromus Tectorum L.)‐‐An Ecologic Intruder in Southern Idaho
Ecology, 1949Cheatgrass brome 1 (Bronnis tectorun) has proved to be a prolific immigrant. Arriving from Europe about 50 years ago, it has spread throughout practically all the arid West and has become a major member of the plant cover on vast areas. Plant collections are first recorded for Pennsylvania in 1861, Washington in 1893, Utah in 1894.
