Braunton's milkvetch is a short-lived (2-3 years) perennial forb that grows to 5 feet (1.5 m) tall. Due to Braunton's milkvetch's considerable size, woody caudex, and multiple stout erect stems, it can be mistaken for a shrub [29,36]. The inflorescence is a raceme with 36 to 60 flowers. Unlike other species in the genus, the flowers turn brown and papery and are not immediately shed after fading. The leaves are pinnately compound, with 25 to 33 leaflets [2,16,24]. The seeds of Braunton's milkvetch have a thick, hardened seed coat. Braunton's milkvetch can be distinguished from other perennial species of milkvetch by the woolly haired stems and 2-chambered seed pods [16,34]. Braunton's milkvetch has a thick taproot [36].

treeFire adaptations: Braunton's milkvetch is a fire-adapted species. The thick seed coat requires scarification by fire or mechanical disturbance to germinate [29,36]. Although undocumented (as of 2006), Braunton's milkvetch may sprout from the caudex after top-kill. Further research is needed on Braunton's milkvetch's adaptations to fire.
FIRE REGIMES: Braunton's milkvetch occurs in a mediterranean climate, with mild winters and hot, dry summers [21]. Summer drought generates low fuel moistures, and Braunton's milkvetch habitats typically experience stand-replacing fires. The natural fire return interval for Braunton's milkvetch habitats is estimated to range from 20 to greater than 100 years, averaging 70 years [36].
Chaparral ecosystems, with natural fire return intervals of 50 to 80 years, usually experiences high-severity fires [25]. In fall, southern California typically experiences hot, dry "Santa Ana" winds that drive chaparral fires. Such fires can easily burn thousands of hectares, killing most aboveground vegetation [6]. Coastal sage scrub experiences fires of similar severity, but with shorter-frequency intervals of 20 to 25 years [40]. Abundant postfire growth of herbs and sprouting shrub species combined with a dry fire season can result in chaparral and coastal sage scrub reburns in only 1 to 2 postfire years. Short fire-return intervals may convert shrublands to annual grasslands [30].
Annual grassland: Since it is a community dominated by nonnative plants, annual grassland does not have a "natural" fire regime. The presettlement frequency of lightning ignitions in California grasslands is assumed to be similar to present fire ignition rates in annual grasslands, although fire size in California prairie was probably larger. Historically, California grasslands consisted of perennial grasses and forbs but most have been converted to annual nonnative grass species [15]. Nonnative grass dominants may influence the fire regime [14]. California annual grasslands characteristically support fast-moving wildfires. Annual grasses germinate, set seed, and die in a single season, quickly curing into flashy fuels. Grassland fire return intervals range from 4 to 20 years, depending on local climate and ignition sources [25].
Knobcone pine habitats experience a range of fire frequencies from 33 to 55 years. Variations in fire frequency depend on vegetation surrounding knobcone pine stands [39]. Knobcone pine is an obligate fire type with a strict closed-cone habit. This adaptation, along with the general absence of animal agents that might open cones, leaves the species dependent upon stand-replacing crown fire for reproduction. [38]. Knobcone pines have a short life span (<100 years) and rarely escape fire [18].
Tecate cypress forest: During the last century, Tecate cypress average fire return interval was 25 years, with a range of 15 to 63 years [1,39]. However, Keeley [20] estimated natural fire frequency from 50 to 100 years for Tecate cypress communities based on reproductive rate data [1,10,41]. Tecate cypress is a fire-adapted tree species. It occurs in areas with extensive shrub cover and high probability of large crown fires. Mature trees die while fire releases the seeds within the serotinous cones. Tecate cypress begins producing cones at 10 years and reaches maximum cone production at 50 years. Fire return intervals less than 10 years could destroy populations and fire return intervals less than 50 years could reduce the number of seeds available for repopulation [18,30,42].

The use of prescription fire would probably increase population numbers by inducing germination of seeds from the seed bank. Construction of fuel breaks and firelines by heavy equipment should be avoided because it may disturb the soil seed bank as well as encourage the spread of nonnative species [

COMMUNITIES:
Braunton's milkvetch is limited to carbonate soils (limestone outcrops) in
chaparral, coastal sage scrub, closed-cone forest, and grassland
communities of the southern California mountains [7,16,33,36].
Chaparral
shrub species associated with Braunton's milkvetch include chamise (Adenostoma fasciculatum),
red shank (A. sparsifolium), manzanita (Arctostaphylos spp.),
ceanothus (Ceanothus spp.), laurel sumac (Malosma laurina),
and sumac (Rhus spp.). California sagebrush (Artemisia
californica), California buckwheat (Eriogonum fasciculatum), and woolly
sunflower (Eriophyllum lanatum var. obovatum) dominate southern
coastal sage scrub communities where Braunton's milkvetch occurs. Black sage (Salvia
mellifera), purple sage (S. apiana), chaparral yucca (Yucca
whipplei), and golden-yarrow (Eriophyllum confertiflorum var.
confertiflorum) are common shrub species associates [9,25].
Braunton's milkvetch inhabits closed-cone forests of knobcone pine (Pinus
attenuata) and Tecate cypress (Cupressus forbesii). Chamise, ceanothus, and manzanita are common
chaparral shrub species associated with
close-coned pine-cypress forests. Many species of oaks (Quercus
chrysolepis, Q. vaccinifolia, Q. wislizenii) and pines (P.
coulteri, P. radiata) are associates in knobcone pine forest with
Braunton's milkvetch. California buckwheat, Parry's beargrass (Nolina
parryi), scrub oak (Quercus berberidifolia), and heart-leaved pitcher
plant (Lepechinia cardiophylla) are common
species associated with Braunton's milkvetch in Tecate cypress forests [17,18,27,39].
Nonnative grasses such as oat (Avena spp.), brome (Bromus spp.)
barley (Hordeum spp.), and rattail sixweeks grass (Vulpia myuros) dominate
the annual grasslands of California where Braunton's milkvetch is located
[
22]. Common native grass associates are purple needlegrass (Nassella pulchra)
and other needlegrass (Stipeae) species [

seedBraunton's milkvetch reproduces sexually [16,24], and may also sprout from the caudex [36].
Breeding system: Braunton's milkvetch is monoecious, with bisexual flowers [16,24].
Pollination: Native megachilid bees and bumble bees pollinate Braunton's milkvetch [12,36]. Ants may also play a role in pollination [12].
Seed production: No information is available on this topic
Seed dispersal: Braunton's milkvetch seeds do not have an apparent dispersal mechanism. Seeds most likely rely on water and gravity for dispersal [12].
Seed banking: Braunton's milkvetch's thick seed coat allows seeds to remain dormant in the soil seed bank for many years [36].
Germination: The seed coat of Braunton's milkvetch requires heat or mechanical scarification for germination. Scarification associated with disturbance increases germination success. Types of disturbance affecting the seed coat include expansion effects from wetting and drying, microbial degradation, heat from fire, and physical abrasion by soil movement [12]. In a germination experiment, Fotheringham and Keeley [12] scarified Braunton's milkvetch seeds by exposure to heat or seed coat penetration, and obtained germination rates of 80 % or greater. Other germination studies on Braunton's milkvetch resulted in 60 % germination of heat-treated seeds and only 1% germination without heat (Carroll, M. 1987 as cited in [36]).
Seedling establishment/growth: Because Braunton's milkvetch is a postdisturbance pioneer species, an open, light-intensive environment is most likely needed for seedling establishment and growth. In laboratory experiments, establishment of Braunton's milkvetch seedlings was greater in full sun and on limestone soils than in other environmental conditions and soil types [12]. Braunton's milkvetch seedlings are low growing when 1st established, then develop into larger, more erect plants within the 1st year [2].
Asexual regeneration: Information on asexual regeneration for Braunton's milkvetch is undocumented. Braunton's milkvetch has a woody caudex that may allow for asexual regeneration [36].

Astragalus brauntonii is a rare species of milkvetch known by the common name Braunton's milkvetch. It is endemic to California, where it is known from fewer than 20 extant occurrences in the hills and mountains surrounding the Los Angeles Basin in Southern California.[1] This is a federally listed endangered species in the United States.
Distribution
Astragalus brauntonii is a plant of the coastal prairie grasslands, coastal sage scrub, and chaparral plant communities of the region. It is often found growing in disturbed areas, especially in carbonate soils areas.[2] The 16 known remaining populations are found in the southwestern Transverse Ranges (eastern Santa Monica Mountains, east end Simi Hills, south base San Gabriel Mountains), northern Peninsular Ranges (northwest side Santa Ana Mountains) — within Los Angeles, Orange, and Ventura Counties.[3] They appear to be extirpated from the southern Channel Islands.[4]
Description
Braunton's milkvetch is a large perennial herb which grows from a woody caudex and reaches up to 1.5-metre (4.9 ft) tall. The thick hollow stems are coated in coarse white hairs. Leaves are up to 16-centimetre (6.3 in) long and are made up of many pairs of oval-shaped leaflike leaflets.
The inflorescence is a dense spike of up to 60 bright lilac flowers. Each pealike flower is about a centimeter long with a reflexed hood. The flowers wither and turn brown but remain on the plant instead of dropping off. The plant is pollinated by native Megachile bees and native bumble bees (i.e. Bombus sp.).
The fruit is a small bent legume pod.
Fire ecology
This plant, like many chaparral species, is fire-adapted and requires wildfire or other disturbance to propagate. The beanlike seeds require scarification to break down their tough seed coats before they can germinate. The seeds persist for years in the soil until fire allows them to sprout, with populations of the plant springing up in an area that has been recently swept by wildfire.[2]
It is a pioneer species, one of the first to grow in a disturbed area and one that is soon crowded out by plant species that appear later in ecological succession. Wildfire suppression in the hills and mountains surrounding Los Angeles prevent the plant from reproducing.[2]
