Promoting Native Vegetation and Diversity in Exotic Annual Grass Infestations (2011, background): “Burning early in the season when bunchgrasses are actively growing compared to MARCH 2011 Restoration Ecology 163 fall prescribed burning can increase mortality and decrease the size of native perennial bunchgrasses (Wright & Klemmedson 1965; Britton et al. 1990; Davies & Bates 2008).”
Revegetation of Medusahead-Invaded Sagebrush Steppe (2010, background): “Though the majority of medusahead seeds only disperse relatively short distances in the absence of vehicles and large animals (Davies 2008), over time propagule pressure would probably have been less in larger treated areas.”
Non-native competitive perennial grass impedes the spread of an invasive annual grass (2010, background): “(desert wheatgrass), was selected for the competitive vegetation barrier because perennial bunchgrasses are critical to preventing exotic annual grass invasions (Davies 2008; James et al. 2008) and bunchgrasses dominate the herbaceous understory in these native plant communities (Davies et al.”
