“…In this study (Table 1 ), the counts of LAB in FS, CH, and CC were lower than aerobic bacteria and yeast counts were. These results agreed with Cai et al 5 , who indicated FS had low LAB counts (< 10 4 cfu/g FM). This fact suggests the numbers of harmful bacteria should be controlled during silage fermentation by adding LAB inoculants 10 .…”

“…The addition of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculants is known to increase the initial LAB numbers of silages, prohibiting the growth of enterobacteria and clostridia 5 . LAB application was also reported to reduce enteric methane (CH 4 ) production, a major source of energy loss and contributor to ruminants’ greenhouse gas emissions, because it could be a rumen fermentation enhancer 6 , 7 .…”

Improving the nutrition of livestock is an important aspect of global food production sustainability. This study verified whether lactic acid bacteria (LAB) inoculant could promote ensiling characteristics, nutritive value, and in vitro enteric methane (CH4) mitigation of forage sorghum (FS) mixture silage in attacking malnutrition in Zebu beef cattle. The FS at the soft dough stage, Cavalcade hay (CH), and cassava chip (CC) were obtained. The treatments were designed as a 4 × 2 factorial arrangement in a completely randomized design. Factor A was FS prepared without or with CH, CC, and CH + CC. Factor B was untreated or treated with Lactobacillus casei TH14. The results showed that all FS mixture silages preserved well with lower pH values below 4.0 and higher lactic acid contents above 56.4 g/kg dry matter (DM). Adding LAB boosted the lactic acid content of silages. After 24 h and 48 h of in vitro rumen incubation, the CC-treated silage increased in vitro DM digestibility (IVDMD) with increased total gas production and CH4 production. The LAB-treated silage increased IVDMD but decreased CH4 production. Thus, the addition of L. casei TH14 inoculant could improve lactic acid fermentation, in vitro digestibility, and CH4 mitigation in the FS mixture silages.

“…This could have been caused by changes in the microbial communities of paper mulberry silage under low acidity conditions, which would be consistent with the findings of Zhang et al (2019). As the accumulation of various organic acids increases, some species or strains reach a point where their metabolic activity drops off, which has no impact on the effectiveness (Cai et al, 2014). This was also confirmed by higher microbial metabolic activity at the early stage than that after 15 days (Figure 3).…”

Effects of Lactic Acid Bacteria on Microbial Metabolic Functions of Paper Mulberry Silage: A BIOLOG ECO Microplates Approach

et al. 2021

Lactic acid bacteria occupy an important position in silage microorganisms, and the effects of exogenous lactic acid bacteria on silage quality have been widely studied. Microbial metabolism has been proved as an indicator of substrate utilization by microorganisms. Paper mulberry is rich in free carbohydrate, amino acids, and other components, with the potential to be decomposed and utilized. In this study, changes in the microbial metabolism characteristics of paper mulberry silage with Lactiplantibacillus plantarum (LP) and Lentilactobacillus buchneri (LB) were studied along with a control (CK) using BIOLOG ECO microplates. The results showed that average well-color development (AWCD), Shannon diversity, Shannon evenness, and Simpson diversity exhibited significant temporal trends. LB and LP responded differently in the early ensiling phase, and the AWCD of LB was higher than LP at 7 days. Principal component analysis revealed that CK, LB, and LP samples initially clustered at 3 days and then moved into another similar cluster after 15 days. Overall, the microplates methodology applied in this study offers important advantages, not least in terms of accuracy.

“…LAB have been reported to improve the fermentation quality of silages. Thus, LAB are hypothesized to increase the silage utilization including, intake, digestibility and performance of ruminants (Cai et al, 2014). L. casei TH14 is classified as facultative heterofermentative bacteria producing 2 moles of lactic acid from 1 mole of glucose and can rapidly reduce the pH of silages (Pholsen et al, 2016).…”

A seasonal residue of rice crop after harvesting, rice straw (RS), mainly serves as a conventional roughage feed for ruminants during time of low fresh grass availability (Cherdthong et al., 2014(Cherdthong et al., , 2020Wanapat et al., 2009). The RS contains relatively low protein, has high fibre content and has low digestibility (Cherdthong et al., 2020). Thus, feeding RS provides insufficient nutrients for optimum production (Wanapat et al., 2013). Therefore, other roughage sources or by-products are highly sought for substituting the conventional RS feeding.Sugarcane is one of the main industrial crops, and its residue from sugar factories, sugarcane bagasse (SB), is available in large amount (300 kg/ton of sugarcane) and at a low price (Chunhawong et al., 2018;Inácio et al., 2017). Using SB as ruminant feed might reduce waste into the environment and pollution. However, feeding
