Table 2 Mean densities, by height class, of Artemisia tridentata ssp. vaseyana plants recruited from established tubeling or wildling plantings

From: Transplanted sagebrush “wildlings” exhibit higher survival than greenhouse-grown tubelings yet both recruit new plants

  1. Mean (± 1 SE) densities of Artemisia tridentata ssp. vaseyana plants, by height class, that were recruited from seed-producing established plants in seven tubeling and nine wildling plots. Data were collected in July 2022 in 1 m x 10 m belts that were oriented to exclude tubelings and wildlings that had been planted in October/November 2019.
