Other claims from this paper (8)
- Observation Tall fescue germplasms did not consistently differ in NDF concentration despite tiller-size differences.
- Observation Selection for fast growth and large tillers did not alter NDF or cell-wall component concentrations.
- Observation Napier orchardgrass herbage had 3% more NDF than Orion.
- Observation Napier orchardgrass herbage had 24% more cell-wall lignin than Orion.
- Observation Barton smooth bromegrass herbage and stems had 5% more NDF than Rebound.
- Observation Barton smooth bromegrass stems had 5% more cell-wall lignin than Rebound.
- Association Orchardgrass herbage digestibility varied inversely with cell-wall lignin concentration.
- Association NDF and cell-wall lignin concentration had equal effects on digestibility variation in smooth bromegrass.
