Survival of a Rifampicin-Resistant Pseudomonas fluorescens Strain in Nine Mollisols

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Soil Science, 2014
Pseudomonas fluorescens strain D7 (P.f. D7) is a naturally occurring soil bacterium that shows promise as a biological herbicide to inhibit growth of annual grass weeds, including downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.), in crop- and rangelands.

A culture‐independent approach to understanding the role of soil fungal communities in Bromus tectorum stand failure

open access: yesMicrobiologyOpen, 2021
Cheatgrass (Bromus tectorum L.) is an invasive annual grass (Poaceae) that has colonized large portions of the Intermountain West. Cheatgrass stand failures have been observed throughout the invaded region, the cause of which may be related to the ...

Pre‐fire grazing and herbicide treatments can affect post‐fire vegetation in a Great Basin rangeland

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, 2023
Management of wildfire associated with spread of the highly invasive annual grass Bromus tectorum (cheatgrass) is a critical need in the western U.S. We investigated the utility of coupling common rangeland management strategies pre‐fire to modify post ...

Ten‐year ecological responses to fuel treatments within semiarid Wyoming big sagebrush ecosystems

open access: yesEcosphere, 2022
Sagebrush ecosystems of western North America are threatened by invasive annual grasses and wildfires that can remove fire‐intolerant shrubs for decades. Fuel reduction treatments are used ostensibly to aid in fire suppression, conserve wildlife habitat,

Herbicide effects on the establishment of a native bunchgrass in annual grass invaded areas: Indaziflam versus imazapic

open access: yesEcological Solutions and Evidence, 2021
1. Annual grass invasion is transforming the western United States and driving a need for restoration techniques that can both reduce exotic annual grass abundance and allow revegetation of native species.

Effects of Elevated Temperature and CO2 Concentration on Seedling Growth of Ventenata dubia (Leers) Coss. and Bromus tectorum L.

open access: yesAgronomy, 2020
The impacts of climate change are expected to alter the abundance and distribution of invasive annual grasses, such as Bromus tectorum L. (cheatgrass) and Ventenata dubia (Leers) Coss. (ventenata).

The Ghost of Outcrossing Past in Downy Brome, an Inbreeding Annual Grass [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Heredity, 2013
We investigated the frequency of outcrossing in downy brome (Bromus tectorum L.), a cleistogamous weedy annual grass, in both common garden and wild populations, using microsatellite and single nucleotide polymorphic (SNP) markers. In the common garden study, 25 lines with strongly contrasting genotypes were planted in close proximity. We fingerprinted

The potential of novel native plant materials for the restoration of novel ecosystems

open access: yesElementa: Science of the Anthropocene, 2015
Extensive ecological change has been sustained by many dryland ecosystems throughout the world, resulting in conversion to so-called novel ecosystems. It is within such ecological contexts that native plant materials destined for ecological applications ...

Optimizing of sulfosulfuron and sulfosulfuron plus metsulfuron-methyl herbicides efficiency against Japanese downy brome Bromus japonicus L. by adjuvants application

open access: yesJournal of Crop Protection, 2021
Efficiency of many herbicides can be increased by adding adjuvants to the spray solution. So, the addition of an appropriate adjuvant to foliar herbicides is important in weed control researches.
