Revisiting the two-layer hypothesis: coexistence of alternative functional rooting strategies in savannas. [PDF]
The two-layer hypothesis of tree-grass coexistence posits that trees and grasses differ in rooting depth, with grasses exploiting soil moisture in shallow layers while trees have exclusive access to deep water.

Improving control of duponchelia fovealis (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) by rooting media related strategies [PDF]
Soil-dwelling predatory mites can be very effective as biological control agents against larvae of the lepidopteral pest Duponchelia fovealis. Some growing media were reported to have natural high level and stable populations of predatory mite.

Effect of rooting area and drinker in the outdoor run on behaviour and Ascaris infection of organic pigs [PDF]
Hygiene is often a problem on the outdoor runs of growing organic pigs. Manure and urine are mainly excreted outside, but spread all over the run. Reduc-ing the dirty surface may improve well being, reduce ammonia emission, improve hygiene and reduce ...
