Kaye, Melanie Gisler, and Rob Fiegener A symposium co-sponsored by: USDI Bureau of Land Management, Institute for Applied Ecology, USDA Forest Service, Native Plant Society of Oregon Proceedings of a Conference on Native Plant Restoration and Management on Public Lands in the Pacific Northwest: Rare Plants, Invasive Species, and Ecosystem Management , Corvallis, Oregon, Feb. 11-13, 2003 Preface: Native plant conservation is a multi-disciplinary field and its success requires an integrated approach. Plant restoration and management on public lands in the Pacific Northwest face many challenges but also present opportunities for cooperative projects, research, on-the- ground action, and community outreach. On February 11-13, 2003, 300 people joined together for a symposium on native plant management in the Pacific Northwest to share information and discuss experiences. Topics covered rare and endangered species conservation and reintroduction, invasive plants, species and habitat restoration, ecosystems, and policy. The meeting featured talks by experts in these fields, and the audience included biologists, land managers, non-profit organizations, and the general public. Michael Way, a member of the International Team for the Millennium Seed Bank Project from the Royal Botanical Gardens, Kew, was our keynote speaker. Mr. Way is the International Coordinator for the Americas and is responsible for the development of seed conservation projects with partners in Mexico, Chile, and the USA.

This information represents what was known at the end of the 1994 field season. These maps may not represent the most recent information on distribution and range for these taxa but it does illustrate geographic distribution across the assessment area. For many of these species, this is the first time information has been compiled on this scale. For the continued viability of many of these taxa, it is imperative that we begin to manage for them across their range and across administrative boundaries. Of the 173 taxa analyzed, there are maps for 153 taxa. For those taxa that were not tracked by heritage programs, we were not able to generate range maps.

We, the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, publish recovery plans, sometimes preparing them with the assistance of recovery teams, contractors, State agencies, and others. Objectives will be attained and any necessary funds made available subject to budgetary and other constraints affecting the parties involved, as well as the need to address other priorities. Recovery plans do not necessarily represent the views nor the official positions or approval of any individuals or agencies involved in the plan formulation, other than our own. They represent our official position only after they have been signed by the Regional Director or Director as approved. Approved recovery plans are subject to modification as dictated by new findings, changes in species status, and the completion of recovery tasks. Literature citation should read as follows: U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service. 2010. Recovery Plan for the Prairie Species of Western Oregon and Southwestern Washington. U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Portland, Oregon. xi + 241 pp. An electronic version of this recovery plan will also be made available at http://www.fws.gov/pacific/ecoservices/endangered/recovery/plans.html and http://www.fws.gov/endangered/recovery/index.html.

  • Steven D. Gisler for the Degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant
    AN ABSTRACT OF THE THESIS OF Steven D. Gisler for the degree of Master of Science in Botany and Plant Pathology presented on May 23, 2003. Title: Reproductive Isolation and Interspecific Hybridization in the Threatened Species,Sidalcea nelsoniana. Abstract appro In addition to its longstanding recognition as an influential evolutionary process, interspecific hybridization is increasingly regarded as a potential threat to the genetic integrity and survival of rare plant species, manifested through gamete wasting, increased pest and disease pressures, outbreeding depression, competitive exclusion, and genetic assimilation. Alternatively, hybridization has also been interpreted as a theoretically beneficial process for rare species suffering from low adaptive genetic diversity and accumulated genetic load. As such, interspecific hybridization, and the underlying pre- and post-mating reproductive barriers that influence its progression, should be considered fundamental components of conservation planning for many rare species, particularly those predisposed to hybridization by various ecological, genetic, and anthropogenic risk factors. In this study I evaluate the nature and efficacy of pre- and post-mating hybridization barriers in the threatened species, Sidalcea nelsoniana,which is sympatric (or nearly so) with three other congeners in the scarce native grasslands of the Willamette Valley in western Oregon. These four perennial species share a high risk of hybridization due to their mutual proximity, common occupation of disturbed habitats, susceptibility to anthropogenic dispersal, predominantly outcrossing mating systems, their capability of long- lived persistence and vegetative expansion, and demonstrated hybridization tendencies among other members of the family and genus. Results show S. nelsonianais reproductively isolated from all three of its congeners by a complex interplay of pre- and post-mating barriers.
