Silage inoculants are commonly used as a tool to improve the fermentation and aerobic stability of corn silage fed dairy cows. However, their effectiveness can be inconsistent. Our objective was determine effect dry matter (DM) content freshly chopped whole-plant on its microbial community affected by an inoculant containing Lentilactobacillus hilgardii, buchneri, Pediococcus pentosaceus improving silage. Whole-plant harvested at low (31.80%, LDM), medium (33.32%, MDM), or high (39.44%, HDM)...
Aims To evaluate the capacity of Lactobacillus hilgardii and buchneri on modifying bacterial community improving fermentation aerobic stability high-moisture corn (HMC). Methods Results High-moisture was untreated (CTR), treated with L. (LH) or (LB) at 600 000 CFU per gram fresh weight, 300 weight each (LHLB), stored for 10, 30 92 days. Compared to CTR, inoculated silages had higher Lactobacillaceae relative abundance, lower yeasts numbers stability. Treatment LHLB resulted in a acetic acid...
We evaluated the effects of a homo-fermentative lactic acid bacteria (homo-LAB) inoculant on fermentation and microbial communities alfalfa ensiled at two dry matter (DM) contents 38 46% DM. At both DMs, was treated or not with an containing Pediococcus acidilactici, Enterococcus faecium Lactobacillus plantarum targeted application rate 165,000 cfu/g fresh weight stored for 3, 30 60 days. Treatment resulted in lower drop pH and, general, higher acetic when applied to medium DM silage. For...
Experiments were conducted over a 3-yr period to evaluate the effects of bacterial inoculants on fermentation profile and aerobic stability whole-plant corn silage (WPC), snaplage (SNA), high-moisture (HMC). Whole-plant was inoculated with Lentilactobacillus buchneri PJB1 in combination Lactiplantibacillus plantarum MTD1 or Lpb. alone (experiments 1 2). Snaplage (experiment 3) HMC 4 5) Len. alone. After inoculation, feedstuffs ensiled 7.57-L silos stored at 21 ± 2°C for 30 90 d. In...
This study evaluated changes in epiphytic microbial population of alfalfa (Medicago sativa) during the growing season. First cut forage was harvested to effects an inoculant combining two obligate heterofermentative lactic acid bacteria strains on bacterial and fungal communities fermentation silage.The microbiome 10-times Alfalfa wilted 395.0 g/kg treated with water (Control) or a combination L. buchneri NCIMB 40788 hilgardii CNCM-I-4785 (LBLH). Mini-silos were opened after 1, 4, 8, 16, 32,...
Our objective was to conduct a meta-analysis on the effects of chemical additive containing sodium benzoate, potassium sorbate, and nitrite fermentation aerobic stability whole-plant maize silage. We used data from 28 experiments, with 56 untreated treated comparisons, carried out over 9-year period. The influence dry matter (DM) content length ensiling effect were assessed by meta-regression subgroup analysis. Treatment reduced pH concentrations ammonia-N, lactic acid, ethanol, but...
Inoculants combining Lentilactobacillus buchneri and hilgardii have been shown to improve the aerobic stability of high-moisture corn (HMC) whole-plant silage, but mode action this co-inoculation remains be elucidated. This study used metatranscriptomics evaluate effects inoculation with L. alone or combined on bacterial community, gene expression, fermentation profile, starch digestibility in HMC. High-moisture not inoculated (Control) NCIMB 40788 (LB) CNCM-I-4785 (Combo) was ensiled mini...
