Great Basin seed study experiment targets rangeland restoration

(University of Nevada, Reno) Restoration of rangelands in the Great Basin is taking a new direction as scientists seek to find the ideal seed stock to use for its many different ecosystems. A new $500,000 USDA National Institute of Food and Agriculture funded project at the University of Nevada, Reno will use genetic studies and new seed stock and seeding strategies to find the most compatible seed and seed combinations for the Great Basin.
