Abstract:Cuticular wax, a critical defense layer for plants, remains a relatively unexplored factor in rumen fermentation. We investigated the impact of cuticular wax on rumen fermentation using triticale as a model. In total, six wax classes were identified, including fatty acids, aldehydes, alkane, primary alcohol, alkyresorcinol, and β-diketone, with low-bloom lines predominated by 46.05% of primary alcohols and high-bloom lines by 35.64% of β-diketone. Low-wax addition (2.5 g/kg DM) increased the gas production by … Show more
