Rochefort North Cascades National Park Service Complex 810 State Route 20 Sedro-Woolley, Washington 98284 June 2010 U.S. Department of the Interior National Park Service Natural Resource Program Center Fort Collins, Colorado The National Park Service, Natural Resource Program Center publishes a range of reports that address natural resource topics of interest and applicability to a broad audience in the National Park Service and others in natural resource management, including scientists, conservation and environmental constituencies, and the public. The Natural Resource Technical Report Series is used to disseminate results of scientific studies in the physical, biological, and social sciences for both the advancement of science and the achievement of the National Park Service mission. The series provides contributors with a forum for displaying comprehensive data that are often deleted from journals because of page limitations. All manuscripts in the series receive the appropriate level of peer review to ensure that the information is scientifically credible, technically accurate, appropriately written for the intended audience, and designed and published in a professional manner. This report received informal peer review by subject-matter experts who were not directly involved in the collection, analysis, or reporting of the data. -
Rare Plant Survey of San Juan Public Lands, Colorado
Rare Plant Survey of San Juan Public Lands, Colorado 2005 Prepared by Colorado Natural Heritage Program 254 General Services Building Colorado State University Fort Collins CO 80523 Rare Plant Survey of San Juan Public Lands, Colorado 2005 Prepared by Peggy Lyon and Julia Hanson Colorado Natural Heritage Program 254 General Services Building Colorado State University Fort Collins CO 80523 December 2005 Cover: Imperiled (G1 and G2) plants of the San Juan Public Lands, top left to bottom right: Lesquerella pruinosa, Draba graminea, Cryptantha gypsophila, Machaeranthera coloradoensis, Astragalus naturitensis, Physaria pulvinata, Ipomopsis polyantha, Townsendia glabella, Townsendia rothrockii. Executive Summary This survey was a continuation of several years of rare plant survey on San Juan Public Lands. Funding for the project was provided by San Juan National Forest and the San Juan Resource Area of the Bureau of Land Management. Previous rare plant surveys on San Juan Public Lands by CNHP were conducted in conjunction with county wide surveys of La Plata, Archuleta, San Juan and San Miguel counties, with partial funding from Great Outdoors Colorado (GOCO); and in 2004, public lands only in Dolores and Montezuma counties, funded entirely by the San Juan Public Lands. Funding for 2005 was again provided by San Juan Public Lands. The primary emphases for field work in 2005 were: 1. revisit and update information on rare plant occurrences of agency sensitive species in the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) database that were last observed prior to 2000, in order to have the most current information available for informing the revision of the Resource Management Plan for the San Juan Public Lands (BLM and San Juan National Forest); 2. -

GURALNICK 1Florida Museum of Natural History 2Biology, University of Florida 3Author for correspondence: [email protected] 1 Sequencing: Sequencing followed previously developed methods1 with the following modifications: library preparation was performed by RAPiD Genomics (Gainesville, FL; using TruSeq-like adapters as in Folk et al. 2015), the targeted insert size was > 200 bp, and sequencing used a 300-cyle (150 bp read) kit for a HiSeq 3000 instrument. The overall outgroup sampling (21 taxa total; Supplementary Table S1) was improved > 5 fold.2 This includes several representatives each of all lineages that have been hypothesized to undergo hybridization in the Heuchera group of genera. For the transcriptomes, reads were assembled against the low-copy nuclear loci from our targeted enrichment experiment, where the targets stripped of intronic sequence but assembly methods otherwise followed a previously developed BWA-based approach1. Transcriptomic reads were also mapped to a Heuchera parviflora var. saurensis chloroplast genome reference1 which was stripped of intronic and intergenic sequence. Assembly methods for target-enriched data followed the BWA-based approach1 directly. In practice, intronic sequence can be recovered from RNAseq data,3 but has consistently lower coverage (pers. obs.); moreover non-coding read dropout can be expected to be high for more divergent outgroups added here. For this reason, only coding reference sequences were used to assemble transcriptomic taxa. For nuclear analyses, reads were assembled with 277 references comprising the gene sequences used for bait design, with intronic sequences stripped. -

White River National Forest Rare Plant Survey 2006
White River National Forest Rare Plant Survey 2006 Prepared for White River National Forest By Peggy Lyon, Janis Huggins and Georgia Doyle Colorado Natural Heritage Program 254 General Services Building Colorado State University Fort Collins CO 80523 Acknowledgments This project would not have been possible without the help of many people in the White River National Forest: Kevin Atchley for first requesting this survey and working to get a contract in place; Beth Brenneman and Keith Giezentanner who took over for Kevin when he left the area; Joe Doerr and Philip Nyland, for sharing their experience and caring about the rare plants on the forest. Also, we depend on the support of the staff of CNHP in Fort Collins, especially Dave Anderson, Jill Handwerk, Susan Spackman, and Amy Lavender. Thanks also to Tim Hogan at the CU Herbarium for assisting with identification of problem plants; Dee Malone for her expertise and transportation to Taylor Pass; and John Chapman, FS Volunteer, for his time and transportation to Warren Lakes. Colorado Natural Areas Program, under the energetic direction of Brian Kurzel, and members of the Colorado Native Plant Society assisted with a survey of the Hoosier Ridge State Natural Area. Finally, thanks to our spouses, George and Rick, for putting up with our absences over the summer, and our faithful companions Molly and Misia, who protected us from Ptarmigan and other scary things. 2 Executive Summary The White River National Forest contracted with Colorado State University in 2005 to have the Colorado Natural Heritage Program (CNHP) conduct a survey of sensitive plants on the forest. -

Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants
Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants June 1, 2011 By Scott Mincemoyer Montana Natural Heritage Program Helena, MT This checklist of Montana vascular plants is organized by Division, Class and Family. Species are listed alphabetically within this hierarchy. Synonyms, if any, are listed below each species and are slightly indented from the main species list. The list is generally composed of species which have been documented in the state and are vouchered by a specimen collection deposited at a recognized herbaria. Additionally, some species are included on the list based on their presence in the state being reported in published and unpublished botanical literature or through data submitted to MTNHP. The checklist is made possible by the contributions of numerous botanists, natural resource professionals and plant enthusiasts throughout Montana’s history. Recent work by Peter Lesica on a revised Flora of Montana (Lesica 2011) has been invaluable for compiling this checklist as has Lavin and Seibert’s “Grasses of Montana” (2011). Additionally, published volumes of the Flora of North America (FNA 1993+) have also proved very beneficial during this process. The taxonomy and nomenclature used in this checklist relies heavily on these previously mentioned resources, but does not strictly follow anyone of them. The Checklist of Montana Vascular Plants can be viewed or downloaded from the Montana Natural Heritage Program’s website at: http://mtnhp.org/plants/default.asp This publication will be updated periodically with more frequent revisions anticipated initially due to the need for further review of the taxonomy and nomenclature of particular taxonomic groups (e.g. Arabis s.l ., Crataegus , Physaria ) and the need to clarify the presence or absence in the state of some species. -
