Relationship of rumen degradability with microbial colonization, cell wall constituents and tannin levels in some tree leaves

ABSTRACT Rumen microbial attachment to food particles had a significant negative correlation with cell wall contents, cellulose and acid-detergent fibre (ADF) ( P < 0·01) and a non-significant correlation with lignin, total phenolic content, condensed tannins and protein precipitation capacity. M...
