Additives Containing Bacteria and Enzymes for Alfalfa Silage

Journal of Dairy Science, 1995
First-cutting alfalfa was wilted, harvested from alternate rows, left untreated or treated with additives containing lactic acid bacteria and enzymes (cellulase, amylase, and pectinase), and ensiled in bag silos. Inoculation increased lactic acid bacteria from 5 x 10(4) to 1 x 10(6) cfu/g of forage.

Understanding natural variation in milk lipids: why parity and lactation stage matter for nutritional value

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Bovine milk is a major dietary source of lipids whose fatty acid (FA) profile shapes its nutritional and technological quality, yet its natural variation is commonly described using fixed days‐in‐milk windows that ignore individual peak‐yield timing and parity‐specific metabolism.

Impact of plant breeding on the responsiveness of maize and wheat varieties to an arbuscular mycorrhizal fungal symbiont

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Field inoculation with arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF) offers a promising route to improve sustainable agriculture and food production, yet results are often variable. We investigated the mycorrhizal growth response of maize and wheat varieties recommended for farmers and found substantial variation under greenhouse conditions.
