• Abiotic and biotic influences on Bromus tectorum invasion and Artemisia tridentata recovery after fire (2011, background): “Long-term observational datasets from sagebrush-steppe recovering from livestock grazing (Anderson and Inouye 2001), and from sagebrush semi-desert responding to wildfire and livestock grazing (West and York 2002), show an inverse relationship between Bromus tectorum and total perennial cover.”
• Exotic plants increase and native plants decrease with loss of foundation species in sagebrush steppe (2010, background): “Sagebrush removals that were intended to promote forage have, in cases, led to persistent invasions of B. tectorum (Hedrick et al. 1966; Blumenthal et al. 2006), and cover of native plants was negatively correlated with B. tectorum in sagebrush steppe ( Anderson and Inouye 2001 ).”
• Resource pulses, species interactions, and diversity maintenance in arid and semi-arid environments (2004, background): “…1981; Steenburgh and Lowe 1983; Goldberg and Turner 1986; Turner 1990) and that these bouts of establishment have occurred disproportionately in different years for different species (Jordan and Nobel 1982; Goldberg and Turner 1986; Chesson and Huntly 1989; Turner 1990; Anderson and Inouye 2001 ).”
• Using ecological restoration to constrain biological invasion (2004, background): “Negative correlations between abundances of native and introduced species (Anderson & Inouye 2001; Heidinga & Wilson 2002) suggest that invasion by A. cristatum could be reduced if old fields were planted with native perennial grasses from later successional stages.”
• Vegetation Characteristics Across Part of the Wyoming Big Sagebrush Alliance (2006, methodology): “Anderson and Inouye (2001) reported 0.13% Sandberg bluegrass, 5.5% perennial grass, and 2.85% perennial forb average cover values for 47 Wyoming big sagebrush plots in southeastern Idaho that had not been grazed or otherwise disturbed for 45 years.”
• Recovery of Big Sagebrush Following Fire in Southwest Montana (2007, background): “However, big sagebrush dominance might decline with age when adequate precipitation favors residual bunchgrasses (Anderson and Inouye 2001).”
• Invasive species: “back-seat drivers” of ecosystem change? (2012, unknown): “Areas of intact native vegetation are resistant to invasion by Bromus, but removal of native vegetation together with fire can promote invasion (Anderson and Inouye 2001; Chambers et al. 2007).”
• Plant Functional Group Diversity as a Mechanism for Invasion Resistance (2005, background): “Increased diversity has been positively correlated with increased community productivity and stabilization (Naeem et al. 1994; Tilman et al. 1997; Anderson & Inouye 2001; Tilman et al. 2001) because of more complete use of resources (Tilman 1997; Brown 1998; Levine & D’Antonio 1999; Carpinelli…”
• Ecosystem Impacts of Exotic Annual Invaders in the Genus Bromus (2016, background): “Wyoming Basin soils invaded by Bromus had very low abundances of all microbial groups according to phospholipid fatty acid analysis, which detects only live microbes (Gasch et al. 2013 ).”
• Grasses as invasive alien plants in South Africa (2004, background): “The only way to reverse annual grass invasions appears to be re-seeding of invaded areas with perennial plants, combined with the exclusion of fire and grazing animals.(30,38) Most of the annual alien grasses in South Africa belong to the Pooidea (species in the genera Avena, Briza, Bromus, Hordeum,”
