Grassification and Fast-Evolving Fire Connectivity and Risk in the Sonoran Desert, United States
Frontiers in Ecology and Evolution, 2021 In the southwestern United States, non-native grass invasions have increased wildfire occurrence in deserts and the likelihood of fire spread to and from other biomes with disparate fire regimes. The elevational transition between desertscrub and montane

Vegetation Responses to Roller Chopping and Buffelgrass Seeding in Argentina [PDF]
Rangeland Ecology & Management, 2005 T-4464 Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) is an introduced grass used extensively for restoring forage capacity of denuded shrublands in the arid Chaco region in central western Argentina. Currently, the technique of roller chopping and simultaneous buffelgrass seeding is widespread, but information is lacking about its effects on forage production and

Impact of Nigrospora oryzae-Derived Natural Products on Photosynthesis and Oxidative Stress in Eichhornia crassipes. [PDF]
Physiol PlantAbstract Interest in natural herbicides has been growing due to government policies restricting synthetic herbicide use in many countries. In that regard, this study investigates the potential of Nigrospora oryzae extract as a natural herbicide against the aquatic invasive weed Eichhornia crassipes.

Predicting Buffelgrass Survival across a Geographical and Environmental Gradient [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1995 This research was designed to identify relationships between T4464 buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) survival and climatic and soil characteristics. At 167 buffelgrass seeding sites in North America we collected climatic and soils data where the grass: 1) persisted over time and increased in area covered (spreads), 2) persisted over time but does not ...
