• Mediterranean annual grasses in western North America: kids in a candy store (2007, background): “Annual grasses displace perennial native cool-season grasses in North American sagebrush-steppe and desert-scrub plant communities, producing more frequent wildfires so that nonsprouting shrub species are also eliminated and cannot recover (Baker 2006; Corbin and D’Antonio 2004; Humphrey and Schupp ”
• Cheatgrass facilitates spillover of a seed bank pathogen onto native grass species (2010, background): “Native grass seedlings have been found to be at a competitive disadvantage in cheatgrass-dominated sites (Humphrey & Schupp 2004; Eiswerth et al. 2009).”
• Ecosystem Impacts of Exotic Annual Invaders in the Genus Bromus (2016, background): “Few native species are able to establish in dense stands of Bromus (e.g., Humphrey and Schupp 2004 ), and loss of native species richness and diversity often leads to either Bromus monocultures or exotic annual/biennial communities (Fig.”
