In general, soils conditioned by Juniperus virginiana (redcedar)
suppressed the C3 grasses Pascopyrum smithii andBromus inermis relative to growth in their home soils (Table 2
and Appendix Table 1). The C4 grasses Andropogon
gerardi and Schizachyrium scoparium showed mixed feedbacks in
soil conditioned by redcedar when compared to the height and biomass of
plants grown in their home soils (Table 2 and Appendix Table 1).
