Böcker av James A. Young

A useful and complete summary of all the scientific information available on one of the most significant plant species in the western and intermountain regions. Among the plant species of the great Basin rangeland, the Purshia - ancient members of the rose family evolved to survive the aridity and temperature extremes of this harsh region - are one of the most important. This book-length study of this key plant species provides a comprehensive examination of the biology and ecology of the species and region.
