In knot theory, the trefoil knot is the simplest nontrivial knot.
The trefoil knot is chiral, meaning it is not equivalent to its mirror image.
It is not a slice knot, meaning that it does not bound a smooth 2-dimensional disk in the 4-dimensional ball; one way to prove this is to note that its signature is not zero.

 Big Trefoil: A New Legume for Pastures on Fragipan Soils
Naturalized ecotypes of big trefoil appear to be strongly perennial and fit the environmental model of hill land fragipan soils (Heath 1970) in the "tall fescue belt" where it competes aggressively with tall fescue.
The advantages of big trefoil are: it spreads by rhizomes, is long-lived in perennial grass pasture, will tolerate acid soil conditions, is adapted to wet or poorly drained soils, nutrient value compares favorably to alfalfa, and it does not cause bloat in cattle or sheep.
The disadvantages of big trefoil are: it lacks drought resistance, is not as winter-hardy as birdsfoot trefoil, requires a specific inoculum (different from birdsfoot trefoil), has less seedling vigor than alfalfa and red clover, and is not tall growing.
