    Effect of arbuscular mycorrhizal inoculation on the quality and in vitro gas production of einkorn wheat straw
    (South African Bureau for Scientific Publications, 2020) Ayasan, Tugay; Cabi, Evren; Esen, S.; Esen, Vasfiye Kader; Eseceli, H.
    The purpose of this study was to determine the effects of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) inoculation on the quality of einkorn wheat straw (EWS) and in vitro gas production (GP). It was found that AM inoculation of EW seed before sowing caused significant increases in crude protein (CP), ether extract (EE), neutral detergent fibre (NDF), zinc (Zn), copper (Cu), and iron (Fe) levels of straw, and a (P <0.05) decrease in crude ash (CA), metabolizable energy (ME), and organic matter digestibility (OMD) compared with the straw of non-inoculated EW. The observed difference in the average GP among the between EWS from plants grown from inoculated seed and those from the untreated control was significant at all times between the third and 96th hour. However, when the GP kinetics of the groups was examined after 96 hours' incubation, only the difference in the gas amount of the easily soluble fractions of feeds was significant. The GP from the slowly fermented part, the GP rate constant and the potential GP of the straws were not affected by the AM inoculation (P >0.05). Thus, inoculation of einkorn wheat with AM altered the nutritional value of the straw produced creating a roughage with decreased value for feeding ruminant livestock. © 2020, South African Bureau for Scientific Publications.

    Nutrient and Mineral Contents, and in vitro Digestibility of Kermes Oak (Quercus coccifera L.) and Mock Privet (Phillyrea latifolia L.)
    (Adem Yavuz Sonmez, 2020) Eseceli, Hüseyin; Ayasan, Tugay; Koç, Fisun; Esen, Vasfiye Kader; Esen, Selim
    This study was conducted to exhibit the importance of kermes oak (Quercus coccifera L.) and mock privet (Phillyrea latifolia L.) in the grazing system and animal feeding. For this purpose, the leaves of these two evergreen shrubs were harvested by hand-clipping in their early vegetative stages at Sarkoy, Tekirdag, Turkey, in April 2019. The nutrient and mineral contents and in vitro digestibility of kermes oak and mock privet was determined by using in vitro gas production technique. In this study, it was found that there was a statistically significant difference between the kermes oak and mock privet in terms of the contents of dry matter, crude ash, crude cellulose, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber and acid detergent lignin, and the minerals of zinc, copper, iron, and potassium (p<0.05). Furthermore, it has been observed that these two shrub plants yielded different values in terms of metabolizable energy and organic matter digestibility (p<0.05). In this study, the time-dependent mean gas production of the two evergreen shrubs was found to be significant at all times except the 96th hour; and gas production kinetics made a significant difference in b, the volume of the gas production from slowly fermentable (p<0.05). The volume of the gas production from slowly fermentable (b) was found to be higher in the mock privet than the kermes oak. Results derived from this study indicate that even the differences between the kermes oak and mock privet in terms of nutrient and mineral contents, both shrubs might be used more adequately as an alternative feed source during the grazing season where they are widely distributed.
