Other claims from this paper (8)

Observation Pellet mixture, organic amendment and rainfall regime produced trade-offs in emergence and survival of three native species.
Intervention effect A 1:1 topsoil and loamy-sand waste pellet blend produced the highest seedling emergence.
Observation Pellets composed entirely of topsoil had lower seedling emergence, possibly because of hardsetting.
Observation Triodia pungens survived to the end of the experiment.
