We report the sequencing and assembly of three transcriptomes from Big (Artemisia tridentata ssp. wyomingensis and A. tridentata ssp. tridentata) and Low (A. arbuscula ssp. arbuscula) sagebrush. The sequence reads are available in the Sequence Read Archive of NCBI. We demonstrate the utilities of these transcriptomes for gene discovery and phylogenomic analysis. An assembly of 61,883 transcript...

As a small Russian exclave some 300 kilometers away from the bulk of the Russian Federation, Kaliningrad Oblast is rarely mentioned in discussions of NATO expansion. (Kaliningrad is the Russian name of the city and oblast , or province. In German, the city now called Kaliningrad was long known as Königsberg; in Polish it was Królewiec; and in Lithuanian Karaliaucius. The Russian name will be us...

Climate induced temporal variation, spatial patterns of vegetation and microenvironments, plant growth forms, soils and geology, and topographic factors influence hydrologicprocesses in rangelandenvironments. In Part I of this study,a gradient analy sis of 13 environmental variables identified temporal and spatial gradients in sagebrush coppice and interspacesoil surface cover types. Spatial co...
