Soil Physicochemical Changes Following Buffelgrass Establishment in Mexico
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

Fig 5. Buffelgrass core microbiome at the genus level.
In the heatmap, genera marked with stars comprise the buffelgrass core microbiome. We collapsed genera with low abundances (< 0.03%).

Hot child in the city: Drivers of urban buffelgrass presence in Tucson, Arizona
Urban environments experience high levels of anthropogenic disturbance and have concentrated human populations, so they are at high risk of invasion by non‐native species like buffelgrass. Here we examine how urban features such as high‐traffic roadways, vacant lots, and alleys influence buffelgrass abundance in residential areas and whether ...

Molecular tools for marker-assisted breeding of buffelgrass [PDF]
The increasing availability of molecular tools is facilitating marker-assisted selection (MAS) in plant improvement programs. The objectives of this research were to: 1) populate the framework buffelgrass genome map with additional molecular markers, 2 ...

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

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

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.
