La biomasse pariétale des fourrages et sa valorisation par les herbivores by J.M. BESLE, J.P. JOUANY

“…Les produits du métabolisme microbien sont directement utilisés par l’animal hôte comme source d’énergie (acides gras volatils) ou comme principal fournisseur d’acides aminés (protéines microbiennes synthétisées dans le rumen) ou de vitamines (vitamines B). La teneur en lignine élevée de certains fourrages est cause d’une médiocre dégradation par les micro-organismes du tube digestif. …”
