Animal Conservation, Volume 28, Issue 3, Page 365-379, June 2025.Long‐distance translocations of northern bobwhites are increasingly used to access source populations with sufficient densities for translocation. This study compared the survival and productivity of bobwhites translocated from the South Texas Plains and the Floridian Coastal Plain to the Floridian Coastal Plain, revealing higher survival and fecundity

Molecular characterization of new Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris) genotypes
Plant Omics, 2020 Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L. Link) is an African agamospermous grass that has been widely introduced into arid regions of the world to improve rangelands for cattle production and as a result, it has invaded adjacent habitats. Cenchrus ciliaris is apomictic, a condition that is normally associated with low genetic variation within populations, but

Soil Physicochemical Changes Following Buffelgrass Establishment in Mexico
Arid Soil Research and Rehabilitation, 1999 Clearing brush from rangeland and seeding it to buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) is a popular range improvement practice in Mexico, but no data are available on the effects of these practices on soil properties. Twenty-nine study sites were randomly selected across 3 major climatic regions in Mexico: 13 in the northwest, 11 in the northeast, and 5 in

Plant Species Biology, Volume 39, Issue 5, Page 260-274, September 2024.Gossypium turneri is a wild cotton that is currently threatened by tourism development and an invasive species. Our results indicate that this species has the ability of autonomous self‐pollination by style curvature, providing reproductive assurance when pollinators are scarce. This finding is relevant as current disturbance might disrupt interactions

Revista de la Facultad de Ciencias Agrarias, 2019 Buffelgrass (Cenchrus ciliaris L.) a native pasture species of Africa is widely used in arid regions because of its forage productivity and quality. It could become serious invasive species, not only for crops but also in natural vegetation. Buffelgrass

Conservation Science and Practice, Volume 6, Issue 9, September 2024.To enhance the nation's resilience to climate change with associated benefits for biodiversity conservation, five recommendations are developed for U.S. federal agencies to effectively incorporate invasive species into climate adaptation planning efforts. Abstract Executive Order No. 14008 mandated that U.S.

Positive Analysis of Invasive Species Control as a Dynamic Spatial Process [PDF]
This paper models control of invasive buffelgrass (Pennisetum ciliare), a fire-prone African bunchgrass spreading rapidly across the southern Arizona desert as a spatial dynamic process. Buffelgrass spreads over a gridded landscape.
