The plant in the image is likely a species of Symphoricarpos, commonly known as snowberry or coralberry. Several species within this genus share similar leaf characteristics, making it challenging to pinpoint the exact species without additional information such as the presence of flowers or berries.
 
Symphoricarpos albus is a species of flowering plant in the honeysuckle family known by the common name common snowberry.[3] Native to North America, it is browsed by some animals and planted for ornamental and ecological purposes, but is poisonous to humans.
 
I looked it up after your post and verified it's coralberry..It gets the red berries. Parts of my farm are covered with it..I guess I need to spray or burn next winter ..

Pretty sure my farm in KS is covered up with this too. Guess they call it buckbrush there. Doesn't get real tall like bush honesuckle so I am being told to leave it be. I guess the deer love it? That was a couple guys opinions in KS.
Can anyone confirm or deny this?
 
Buckbrush / Coralberry. Our timber is full of it. Not an invasive and is native to Iowa. Doesn’t hurt much, but have seen when we open up the timber or prescribed fire, other forbs will grow in it’s place.
