Abstract
Rangelands are the Earth’s largest land type and provide the feed source for the extensive grazing of beef and dairy cattle (Bos taurus), sheep (Ovis aries), goat (Capra aegagrus hircus), horse (Equus ferus caballus), camel (Camelus spp [...]

A key characteristic of rangeland agriculture is its typical lack of dependence on external inputs, such as supplemental irrigation and fertilization [8]
Various breeding programs exist to develop and improve rangeland plant materials for establishment, persistence, and production on these harsh rangeland sites to increase the probability of successful rangeland revegetation
Summary
Publisher’s Note: MDPI stays neutral with regard to jurisdictional claims in published maps and institutional affiliations. Various breeding programs exist to develop and improve rangeland plant materials for establishment, persistence, and production on these harsh rangeland sites to increase the probability of successful rangeland revegetation. Articles highlight traditional plant breeding and evaluation of improved rangeland plant materials, elucidation of the effects and importance of genotype × environment interaction on rangeland plant materials, and the use of molecular biological techniques to identify genetic determinants of important traits and pursue marker-assisted selection.
