TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the effects of NAT, hexanoic acid, and Lactobacillus plantarum on fermentation characteristics, aerobic stability, mycotoxins concentrations, and bacterial community in high moisture whole-crop corn silage .

TL;DR: In this paper , a co-ensiling of alfalfa with sainfoin containing condensed tannins in five ratios was investigated on silage fermentation, chemical and bacterial community composition, in vitro ruminal fermentation characteristics, CH 4 emission and archaeal and protozoal community.

TL;DR: Yeast supplementation has been shown to stimulate the growth of both cellulolytic and lactate-utilizing bacteria and protozoa in ruminant diets as mentioned in this paper , which is likely due to yeast stimulating the growth.

TL;DR: The authors evaluated the effect of two commercial amylases with known activity at low pH and storage length on fermentation profile, microbial diversity, and effective rumen degradation (ERD) of silages of rehydrated kernels of sorghum (RES) or flint corn (REC).

TL;DR: In this paper , the effects of treating forage with a fibrolytic enzymes extract (FEE), produced by Trichoderma reesei , on animal performance, blood biochemical parameters, nutrient digestibility, ruminal fermentation, and enteric CH 4 production of growing lambs were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of increasing levels of the greasy babassu byproduct (GBB) in the diet of lambs on the fatty acid (FA) profile of abomasal digesta content, meat quality traits, and meat FA profile were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors investigated the impact of Hermetia illucens (HI) meal inclusion in low-fishmeal (FM) diets for rainbow trout by assessing fish growth performance, nutrient digestibility, histomorphological traits of intestine and main organs, and gut microbiota.

TL;DR: In this article , the potential of different insect oils (as an alternative to soybean oil), insect chitosan and their combinations to modulate ruminal biohydrogenation was evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated the partial or total replacement of soybean oil with cold-extracted Hermetia illucens larvae (BSFL) fat in young turkey diets on growth performance.

TL;DR: In this article , a systematic review and a meta-analysis were conducted to determine the acidifiers that are most consistent on improving growth performance when supplemented to pig diets, and the acidifier-supplemented diets had the similar G:F, but lower ADG and ADFI.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors focus on the diversity of fibers, found in RSM, SFM and SBM, and identify recalcitrant non-starch polysaccharides (NSP) of these meals in monogastric animals, and indicate opportunities to improve degradation of these fibers.

TL;DR: In this article , two experiments were conducted to test the hypotheses that microbial phytase improves the standardized total tract digestibility (STTD) of phosphorus (P) in bakery meal and that corn may be replaced by bakery meal in diets for weanling pigs without negative effects on growth performance.

TL;DR: Wang et al. as mentioned in this paper evaluated the effect of the addition of Phyllostachys BLF to Chinese mitten crabs and found that the inclusion of 500 mg/kg BLF only increased the serum lysozyme content (P < 0.05).

TL;DR: In this article , Scrophularia striata hydroalcoholic extract (SSE) and mannan-oligosaccharide were used in a six-week pilot-scale study to assess their effectiveness against C. jejuni.

TL;DR: In this paper , the rumen microbiota of yaks and cattle were compared, and it was concluded that the greater relative abundance of fibrolytic and H 2-incorporation bacteria and lesser H2-producing bacteria enable yaks to better digest fibers and produce less CH4 than cattle.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors evaluated trace mineral supplies of iron (Fe), copper (Cu), manganese (Mn), zinc (Zn), cobalt (Co), iodine (I) and selenium (Se) using rumen sustained release boluses on milk yield and milk components, rumen fermentation and the rumen bacteria.

TL;DR: In this article , the effects of high DHA algae meal (AlgaPrime™ DHA) as a cost-effective substitute for high-DHA fish oil in finisher feeds on growth performance and nutritional quality of sobaity (Sparidentex hasta) muscle were evaluated.

TL;DR: In this paper , a study was conducted to determine if capping dietary starch:protein ratios in reduced-crude protein diets enhances growth performance of broiler chickens offered maize-based diets.

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors compared the effectiveness of Near-Infrared (NIR: 9000-4000 cm-1) and mid-infrared spectroscopy to measure the nutritional value and in vitro dry matter rumen digestibility of brown seaweeds.

TL;DR: In this article , the nutritional and phytochemical profiles of Acacia leaves and their bioactivity and efficacy in reducing GHG emissions and enhancing meat production and quality has been fully documented.

TL;DR: In this article , the impact of silage quality on methane (CH4) production is largely unknown, but the authors expected that silage nutrient concentrations and silage fermentation products would affect CH4 yield and that these factors could be used to predict the methanogenic potential of the silages.

TL;DR: In this article , the authors investigated whether elevated leucine inclusions in reduced-crude protein (CP) diets would advantage broiler growth performance, provided concomitant elevations in isoleucine and valine were employed.

TL;DR: In this paper , the influence of crude protein (CP) concentrations of basal diets on accurate metabolizable energy (ME) determination of a test ingredient is of an issue, a potential influence of CP concentrations in the basal diet and test ingredients on the ME:digestible energy (DE) of full-fat soybeans (FFSB; 377 g/kg CP) and soy protein isolate (SPI; 876 g/ kg CP) using the difference procedure.
