Abstract or Summary

Native grasses provide vital benefits to the Southwest desert ecosystem, high quality forage for livestock, and effective mitigation tools for addressing natural resources concerns. Several improved native grass cultivars and pre-varietal germplasms were evaluated for better performance and ecological adaptation and have been released by Plant Materials Centers and collaborators to meet conservation needs.
