Functional trait differences between native bunchgrasses and the invasive grass Bromus tectorum [PDF]
We conducted 30- and 60-d greenhouse experiments to compare functional traits of Bromus tectorum (invasive annual grass) and four perennial bunchgrasses under well-watered or drought conditions. Even under drought, B.

Secondary dormancy of seeds in relation to the Bromus tectorum-Pyrenophora semeniperda pathosystem
Bromus tectorum is a highly invasive annual grass. The fungal pathogen Pyrenophora semeniperda can kill a large fraction of B. tectorum seeds. Outcomes in this pathosystem are often determined by the speed of seed germination.
