Name: Gutierrezia sarothrae - Yucca glauca Dwarf-shrubland Reference: Midwestern Ecology Working Group... Description: This association has been identified in the northern panhandle of Texas but is likely present elsewhere in the southwestern Great Plains. It occurs on shallow or gravelly, usually calcareous soils on dry upland sites. There is a moderate canopy of dwarf-shrubs dominated by <i>Gutierrezia sarothrae</i>, with <i>Yucca glauca</i> present but not abundant. <i>Opuntia</i> spp. are often present, as well, and tend to increase with disturbance such as grazing. Herbaceous cover is moderate. <i>Aristida purpurea, Bouteloua curtipendula</i>, and <i>Sporobolus cryptandrus</i> are the most common herbaceous species.  Accession Code: VB.CC.36641.CEGL005011 Plot-observations of this Community Concept: 0
