Competition between alien annual grasses and native annual plants in the Mojave desert
Brooks ML. 2000. Competition between alien annual grasses and native annual plants in the Mojave desert. The American Midland Naturalist. 144(1):92-108
Alien annual grasses in the genera Bromus and Schismus are widespread in the Mojave Desert. A negative correlation may exist between these aliens and native annual plants. The results suggest that the effects of competition may vary in intensity among years.
