Profiling Environmental Variations in Condensed Tannins and Other Metabolites of Birdsfoot Trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.) Genotypes [PDF]
Lotus corniculatus L., also known as birdsfoot trefoil (BFT), is a perennial, non-bloating, temperate forage legume widely grown due to its accumulation of high levels of condensed tannins (CTs) in foliage.

In vitro ruminal fermentation characteristics and utilisable CP supply of sainfoin and birdsfoot trefoil silages and their mixtures with other legumes [PDF]
The extensive protein degradation occurring during ensiling decreases the nutritive value of silages, but this might be counteracted by tannins. Therefore, silages from two legume species containing condensed tannins (CT) – sainfoin (SF) and birdsfoot ...
