Agresti

Felix qui potuit rerum cognoscere causas. Fortunatus et ille deos qui novit agrestis. Lucky is he who has been able to understand the causes of things. Fortunate, too, is the man who has come to know the gods of the countryside .

In addition, it has been discovered that there are naturally occurring enzymes that facilitate Diels-Alder type reactions within certain metabolic pathways and that enzymes are also instrumental in forming polyketides, isoprenoids, phenylpropanoids, and alkaloids (de Araujo et al., 2006). Agresti et al. (2005) identified ribozymes from RNA oligo libraries that catalyzed multiple-turnover Diels-Alder cycloaddition reactions.

Anal gland secretion of male short-tailed voles, M. agrestis, stimulates plasma testosterone, body weight, and anal gland size in other males. The biological significance of this effect is unclear (Khan and Stoddart, 1986). 

In Sweden, phenols did not protect introduced lodgepole pines, Pinus contorta, particularly well against debarking by the vole M. agrestis. Being an alien tree species may be an important factor (Hansson etal, 1986). The authors pointed out that, in general, any natural defense will work only at low browsing pressure by voles.

However, several European rodent and shrew species (A. sylvaticus, C. glareolus, M. agrestis, and Sorex araneus) entered cleaned (with boiled water or detergent) traps equally often as dirty ones (only scraped after use). This was true for each species and sex. This suggests it may not be necessary to clean traps between uses (Tew, 1987).
