Abstract

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of additives and corn varieties on the quality and in vitro digestibility of whole corn silage. The whole corn of Jingke 968, Gaoyou 958 and Luxingnuo were used as raw materials. Lactobacillus brucei (LB), sodium benzoate (SB) and SB+LB were used as additives. The specific treatment was as follows: 1) no additive (CK) and equal amount of distilled water was added; 2) adding LB, the additive amount was 1×106 CFU/g FM; 3) adding SB, the additive amount was 0.2% FM; 4) adding LB+SB, the added amount of LB was 1×106 CFU/g FM, and the added amount of SB was 0.2% FM. The fermentation quality, nutrient composition and in vitro digestibility of whole corn silage were determined and the correlation analysis was carried out. The results showed that the pH, ammonia nitrogen/total nitrogen, butyric acid, neutral detergent fiber, acid detergent fiber and starch quality of the three varieties of whole corn silage belong to “first class”. The lactic acid content in Jingke 968 and Gaoyou 958 after adding LB was significantly higher than SB (P<0.05). The acetic acid content in the silage of 3 varieties of whole corn treated with LB and SB+LB was significantly higher than that of CK and SB (P<0.05). Acid detergent fiber content of Jingke 968 and Gaoyou 958 was decreased significantly after adding LB. The in vitro dry matter digestibility content of Gaoyou 958 was the highest after LB supplementation (P<0.05). In vitro dry matter digestibility had the highest value after adding LB, followed by SB+LB. Correlation analysis showed that in vitro dry matter digestibility was significantly negatively correlated with neutral detergent fiber and acid detergent fiber contents, and in vitro neutral detergent fiber digestibility was significantly positively correlated with lactic acid and acetic acid contents. The results of comprehensive evaluation show that Gaoyou 958 variety with LB has the best silage effect.

在奶牛的生产过程中,粗饲料可为动物提供必需的营养物质,通常占饲粮的30%~70%[1]。为了保持粗饲料的品质,在奶牛养殖中普遍采用青贮饲料[2]。青贮是一种保证新鲜牧草品质的有效方法,具有贮存时间长、适口性好、营养价值高等特点。玉米是家畜能量饲料的主要来源,含有丰富的水溶性碳水化合物,可作为主要的青贮原料[3],蜡熟期收获的青贮玉米可以调制为优质的青贮饲料[4-5]
在青贮过程中添加剂的选择是影响青贮饲料品质的关键因素,使用微生物或者化学添加剂都可以有效提高青贮饲料质量。乳杆菌群中的少数菌种在青贮饲料生产中表现良好,包括布氏乳杆菌(Lentilactobacillus buchneri,LB)和不常见的克氏乳杆菌(Lactobacillus gasseri)、短乳杆菌(Lactobacillus brevis)、希尔加迪乳杆菌(Lentilactobacillus hilgardii)和副乳杆菌(Paralactobacillus leisner)[6]。LB具有较高的耐酸性和抗菌活性[7]。有研究表明,LB添加量越多,青贮饲料的品质越好[6,8]。化学添加剂可以电离产生酸和盐离子,具有酸性和抗菌性能[9]。有机酸的未解离分子可以穿过质膜,释放质子使细胞质酸化,从而阻止酵母和霉菌的生长[10]。近年来,苯甲酸钠(SB)主要作为一种微生物生长调节剂应用于青贮生产[11],它可以抑制有害细菌和真菌的生长,从而提高青贮饲料的发酵品质和有氧稳定性[6,12]。然而由于种植地区和环境的不同,添加剂和品种对全株玉米青贮的影响也不尽相同,且研究多集中在单一品种和添加剂,关于多品种和添加剂在通辽地区青贮玉米中的关注较少。因此,本试验旨在探究不同玉米品种和添加剂对青贮玉米发酵特性、营养成分和体外消化率的影响以及相关性分析,以期提高全株玉米青贮品质,为青贮玉米品种筛选和添加剂产品优化提供理论依据。

1 材料与方法

3 讨论

3.1 玉米品种和添加剂对全株玉米发酵特性的影响

添加LB的青贮饲料需要更长的保存期(从45到90 d)才能有效,这是使用大多数商业化的LB菌株作为青贮添加剂的一个关键方面[17]。LB可将LA转化为AA和1,2-丙二醇[18]。AA具有抗真菌特性,可以抑制酵母等不良微生物的繁殖[6]。本研究3个品种全株玉米青贮经LB和SB+LB处理的AA含量显著高于CK和SB处理。Driehuis等[19]研究表明,单独使用LB或与同型发酵乳酸菌组合使用LB作为添加剂青贮后发现,与对照相比,AA含量增加,可能是由于全株玉米青贮中的木质纤维素被微生物降解为戊糖导致[20],这与Kristensen等[21]的研究结果一致。
pH是衡量青贮饲料发酵品质和有机酸产生的主要指标之一,本研究中全株玉米青贮发酵200 d后pH稳定在3.79~4.12,使用LB处理后各玉米品种的pH都接近CK处理。添加剂和玉米品种的pH没有显著差异,乳酸和乙酸积累后pH会降低。据报道,微生物添加剂会增加或不影响青贮饲料的pH[8,22]。Ferrero等[23]研究表明,单丙氨酸和单丁二酰甘油混合物对全株玉米青贮发酵品质的影响时发现,发酵100和240 d的pH在添加LB(NCIMB 40788)后高于使用化学添加剂(单丙氨酸和单丁二酰甘油混合物),这可能是因为该研究的全株玉米青贮饲料DM含量高(DM>40%)、低水分活度和不适合乳酸菌生存的环境使LB活性无效。

3.2 玉米品种和添加剂对全株玉米ST和WSC的影响

本研究中,各玉米品种经LB和SB+LB处理后全株玉米青贮的ST含量低于CK和SB处理,但处理之间无显著差异。这说明化学添加剂对微生物有抑制作用,一定程度上阻碍了微生物对ST的利用;另外,青贮玉米收获时一般在1/2到2/3乳线期,获得的DM含量高,ST比例高,水分活度和WSC含量较低,乳酸菌发酵困难[24]。Nair等[25]的研究表明,将希尔加迪乳杆菌(Lactobacillus hilgardii)和LB组成的异发酵乳酸菌混合物添加到全株玉米青贮饲料中,研究结果显示,在对照组(23.1% DM)和添加微生物的处理组(24.3% DM)之间,全株玉米青贮的ST含量差异并不显著,也就是说微生物添加剂对全株玉米青贮ST含量影响较小。
WSC含量对于青贮至关重要,为乳酸菌提供足够的发酵底物[26]。本研究中,3个品种的全株玉米青贮在使用化学添加剂后WSC含量增加,可能的原因是SB主要以未离解酸的形式起作用,它们的抗菌活性受到微生物发酵产生的环境影响[27],而抗菌活性的增加也减少了微生物对WSC的消耗。经过LB处理的全株玉米青贮的WSC含量变化不大,而Wang等[28]研究表明,在乳酸菌和艾蒿处理玉米青贮饲料中微生物群落和发酵品质的变化时发现,在青贮60 d时,添加乳酸菌全株玉米青贮的WSC含量比对照组显著降低,与本研究结果不一致,可能是因为本研究中原料收获于蜡熟期,水分和WSC含量较低,使得乳酸菌活性较低。

3.3 不同玉米品种和添加剂对全株玉米青贮纤维和体外消化率的影响

纤维含量是评价青贮饲料的一个重要指标,饲料中高含量的粗纤维会降低动物的采食量和DM消化率,甚至会降低生产性能[29]。本研究中,京科968和高油958全株玉米青贮的NDF和ADF含量经LB处理后低于CK和SB处理,这可能是青贮过程中产生的有机酸水解可消化细胞壁部分的结果[30]。Rossi等[30]研究表明,使用LB的青贮玉米NDF和ADF含量都低于无添加剂的对照组,与本研究结果一致。
青贮添加剂中使用的乳酸菌可以在瘤胃液中存活,与瘤胃微生物相互作用,改变瘤胃发酵,增强瘤胃功能,并在小肠中提供益生菌[31]。LB可以在青贮饲料中产生阿魏酸酯酶,这有可能提高纤维的消化率[31]。本研究中3个全株玉米品种在添加LB青贮200 d后的IVDMD和IVNDFD升高,各玉米品种IVNDFD在添加LB后最高,其次是SB+LB,这表明了在玉米青贮饲料微生物添加剂会强化发酵,进一步水解细胞壁成分并结合到瘤胃微生物中[32-33]。Wagali等[34]研究表明,添加微生物菌剂后全株玉米青贮的IVNDFD显著增加,与本研究结果一致。

4 结论

综上所述,在生产实践中,建议选择高油958作为通辽地区全株青贮玉米的适宜种植品种,并配合LB作为添加剂使全株玉米青贮品质得到进一步提升。
