Influence of Trichoderma Harzianum Rifai on growth, chemical compositions and root exudation of axenic tobacco
… did inoculated plants. Similar amounts of total water soluble carbohydrates, reducing sugars, fructose, starch, nicotine, nitrogen, and protein were found in axenic and root-colonized plants. Sodium content was consistently greater in the inoculated plants. Manganese and barium were in larger …

Yield, chemical composition, digestibility and palatibility of orchardgrass (Dactylis glomerata L.) fertilized with different levels of nitrogen and sulphur
… a quadratic effect (P<0.0001) on lactic acid and water-soluble carbohydrates in silage. Digestibility or palatability of silage was not influenced by N or S.

The NAM-B1 transcription factor and the control of grain composition in wheat
… reallocation of photosynthate to the stems as water soluble carbohydrates. Many of the putative NAM-B1 target genes identified by ChIP-seq have functions related to photosynthesis and validation of these candidate genes is ongoing. In summary I have identified putative NAM-B1 target genes and …

Effect of sulphur fertilization on growth and chemical composition of sorghum (Sorghum Bicolor L.) and on utilization of sorghum silage fed to wethers
… S-fertilization increased (P < 0.05) S and water soluble carbohydrates and decreased (P < 0.05) N:S ratio and P concentration in whole plants. Sorghum leaves were higher (P < 0.05) in N, S, Ca, Mn and Cu in S fertilized compared to non-S fertilized sorghum. Sulphur fertilization decreased (P …

Impact of lignification of corn stover fractions on cell wall degradation by rumen microorganisms and response to ammonia treatment
… associated with decreases (P<.001) in CP and water soluble carbohydrates (WSC), and increases (P<.001) in NDF and ADF. The IVDMD of leaf was higher (P<.001) than of stems, associated with higher CP, hemicellulose:cellulose, and arabinan:xylan, and lower lignin methoxyl content. A hypothesis of …

Identifying nutritive, physical and volatile characteristics of oaten and lucerne hay that affect the short-term feeding preferences of lactating Holstein Friesian cows and Thoroughbred horses.
… (ADF), hemicellulose, crude protein (CP) and water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) - with a correlation co-efficient of about 79% with cows and 61% for horses. Acid detergent fibre and CP contents tended to have the biggest influence on preference value for both cows and horses, followed by WSC …

Influence of Penicillium simplicissimum (Oud.) Thom and Penicillium citrinum Thom on growth, chemical composition and root exudation of axenic marigold
… plants was lower than the noninoculated. Total water soluble carbohydrates and reducing sugars were significantly higher in the foliage of root colonized plants 34 days after inoculation. Total organic matter and protein were decreased in root exudates 20 days after inoculation. These variations …

Tillering and carbohydrate content of orchardgrass as influenced by environmental factors
… a 9-hour day with 3100 F.C. in both chambers. Soluble carbohydrates in the stubble were associated with tillering. There was a marked increase in water soluble carbohydrates as light energy increased up to normal sunlight. Ory matter production was associated with tillering and carbohydrate …

Effects of Orange (Citrus sinensis) Pulp-buffalo grass (Cenchruis cilliaris) silage on digestibility, growth performance and blood metabolites of windsnyer-type and large white x landrace crossed pigs
… 4 of the experiment. The levels of CP, EE, NDF, water soluble carbohydrates (WSC), lactic acid (LA) and pH were different (P<0.05) for OPBGE and OPBG on day 7. However the OPBGE concentra-tions of DM, ASH, CP, NDF, HEMI, WSC, LA and pH were higher (P<0.05) compared to OPBG. The OPBGE was lower …

Rumen biohydrogenation of polyunsaturated fatty acids in high quality pasture
… of pasture analysis indicated that levels of water-soluble carbohydrates and crude protein were highest in spring and autumn, while the content of NDF was lowest during the same periods. The most notable feature of milk fatty acid composition was the higher level of a-linolenic acid (C18:3) …

Fermentation, utilization and palatability of broiler litter ensiled at different moisture levels and with high moisture corn grain
… of ensiling broiler litter alone, with added water or with high moisture corn grain was evaluated. Wood shaving based broiler litter was ensiled in small laboratory silos (about 4 liters) at moisture levels of 15.6 (no water added), 20, 30, 40 and 50%. Maximum fermentation was approached at …

Fermentation characteristics and nutritional value of different proportions of alfalfa and wheat straw ensiled with and without different additives
… (P < .01) lactic acid concentration. Overall, water soluble carbohydrates (WSC) in pre-ensiled mixtures increased (P < .01) linearly with increases in alfalfa. The WSC decreased (P < .01) after ensiling. Microbial inoculant did not affect pH or lactic acid content in the silages. In vitro dry …

Circadian and Seasonal Variation in Pasture Nonstructural Carbohydrates and the Physiological Response of Grazing Horses
Nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC), which includes sugars, starches and fructans in pasture forages, undergo circadian and seasonal variation which has direct effects on metabolism in grazing horses. Increased intake of NSC is implicated in the development of digestive and metabolic disorders, such …

Physiological response of grazing horses to seasonal fluctuations in pasture nonstructural carbohydrates
… health and performance. Pasture nonstructural carbohydrates (NSC) have been shown to fluctuate diurnally and seasonally throughout the year due to various factors including environmental conditions and plant stress. The intake of elevated NSC content is linked with metabolic and digestive …
