(1) Background: Previous studies have indicated that proteolysis is inhibited by the condensed tannins (CTs) are present during sainfoin ensiling. Whether inhibiting this effect of CTs on functional aerobic exposure still unclear. (2) Methods: study investigated metabolite composition silage via use polyethylene glycol (PEG), leading to inactivation CTs. (3) Results: The neutral detergent-insol...

To explore the potential of in vitro rapid regeneration, three varieties (Golpaygan-181, Orumieh-1763, and Gorgan-1601) of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop. syn. Onobrychis sativa L.) were evaluated. For the first time, an encapsulation protocol was established from somatic embryogenic callus in torpedo and cotyledonary stages to create artificial seeds. Callus derived from different concen...

The current paper has presented the study results of promising lines sainfoin in competitive variety testing. purpose was to estimate fodder, seed productivity and quality fodder mass for introduction best them into production use breeding. carried out fields FSBSI “ARC “Donskoy”. objects were nine varieties lines. standard a ‘Veles’. According results, green ‘Sin 2/2010’, 4/2010’ 8/95’ 30.1 t/...

The key factor in the choice of perennial legume grasses face climate change is their drought resistance, because development roots directly affects this property, as well determines fertility. purpose study was to establish what morphological and biological characteristics grass ensure economic context change. Methods observation, comparison, field experiment were used. found that alfalfa have...

The two temperate forage legumes containing condensed tannins (CT) that promote ruminant production are birdsfoot trefoil (Lotus corniculatus L.; BFT) and sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.; SF). Both are well-adapted to the cool-temperate climate and alkaline soils of the Mountain West USA. Condensed tannins comprise a diverse family of bioactive chemicals with multiple beneficial functions...
