From the Conclusions ... 'When planning prescribed fire with the objective of controlling invasives, fire impacts on all species must be considered and efforts made to prescribe a fire or fire regime that will favor native vegetation over invasive plants. Use of fire to control invasives in a plant community where the fire is outside reference conditions could produce undesired effects on the native community.'
