Relative abundance of and composition within fungal orders differ between cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) and sagebrush (Artemisia tridentata)-associated soils. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 Nonnative Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass) is decimating sagebrush steppe, one of the largest ecosystems in the Western United States, and is causing regional-scale shifts in the predominant plant-fungal interactions.

Global Ecology and Conservation, 2023 Interactions among species can strongly affect how plant communities reassemble after disturbances, and variability among native and invasive species across environmental gradients must be known in order to manage plant-community recovery.

Cheatgrass competition and establishment of desert needlegrass seedlings [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 2002 Desert needlegrass (Achnatherum speciosum [Trin. Rupr.] Barkworth) is potentially a valuable native species for use in restoration seedings in the more arid portions of the Great Basin. Seedlings of desert needlegrass were grown in a greenhouse with 5 different densities of cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.).

Salinity affects development, growth, and photosynthesis in cheatgrass [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 2002 The effects of salt stress on growth and development of cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) were investigated in 2 greenhouse studies. The first study assessed developmental and physiological responses of this grass to 4 salinity levels. Salinity stunted growth through reduced leaf initiation and expansion, and reduced photosynthetic rates.

Cheatgrass and Range Science: 1930-1950 [PDF]
Journal of Range Management, 1997 Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) is currently and historically has been a serious point of contention among a wide variety of people interested in sagebrush (Artemisia)bunchgrass rangelands. Nowhere are these differences more apparent than in the scientific community.

Ecosphere, 2022 Over the past century, piñon and juniper trees have encroached into sagebrush steppe lands of the interior United States, and managers have for many years removed trees to stimulate the favored understory.

Earlier fall precipitation and low severity fire impacts on cheatgrass and sagebrush establishment
Ecosphere, 2020 In arid and semiarid ecosystems, invasion by exotic grasses may be driving state changes in vegetation defined by losses of native shrub communities.

Remote Sensing, 2021 Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum) invasion is driving an emerging cycle of increased fire frequency and irreversible loss of wildlife habitat in the western US. Yet, detailed spatial information about its occurrence is still lacking for much of its presumably

, 2022 Bromus tectorum L., known as cheatgrass or downy brome, is arguably the most damaging invasive species in North America. Bromus tectorum reduces crop yields, increases the frequency of wildfires, and displaces indigenous species in North America, especially the intermountain west.
