Abstract

Bromus carinatus Hook. & Arn. and Elymus glaucus Buckley are 2 notoriously short-lived native grasses (Poaceae) of the western US. In my operational trials, refrigeration with indicator silica gel is the best energy-efficient method of storage, maintaining Elymus germination > 60% for at least 10 y and Bromus germination > 90% after 14 y.
