Effects of Conversion From Sagebrush to Non-Native Grasslands on Sagebrush-Associated Species [PDF]
Rangelands, 2015 On the Ground There are as many as 170 vertebrate wildlife species throughout the western United States and Canada that are associated with and sometimes dependent on sagebrush habitats and can be negatively affected by conversion of sagebrush ecosystems to non-native perennial or annual grassland.

Insights into transcriptomes of big and low sagebrush.
PLoS ONE, 2015 We report the sequencing and assembly of three transcriptomes from Big (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis and A. tridentata ssp. tridentata) and Low (A. arbuscula ssp. arbuscula) sagebrush.

Temporal Patterns of Structural Sagebrush Connectivity from 1985 to 2020
Land, 2023 The sagebrush biome within the western United States has been reshaped by disturbances, management, and changing environmental conditions. As a result, sagebrush cover and configuration have varied over space and time, influencing processes and species ...

Forms of Melanoplus bowditchi (Orthoptera: Acrididae) collected from different host plants are indistinguishable genetically and in aedeagal morphology [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 The sagebrush grasshopper, Melanoplus bowditchi Scudder (Orthoptera: Acrididae), is a phytophilous species that is widely distributed in the western United States on sagebrush species. The geographical distribution of M.

Reestablishing a foundational species: Limitations on post‐wildfire sagebrush seedling establishment
Ecosphere, 2022 Improving post‐wildfire restoration of foundational plant species is crucial for conserving imperiled ecosystems. We sought to better understand the initial establishment of sagebrush (Artemisia sp.), a foundational shrubland species over a vast area of ...
