Broussonetia papyrifera has increasingly been used as a high-quality feedstuff for ruminants due to its advantageous characteristics. The storage temperature can influence the fermentation quality of silage; however, effect on B. leaves (BPL) silage not reported. In present study, and bacterial community BPL, stored at 15 °C 30 °C, were investigated during ensiling (day 3, 7, 14, 30) with or wi...

In this work, we present a facile and low-cost approach to synthesize heteroatom doped porous carbon via hydrothermal treatment of stem bark of broussonetia papyrifera (BP) as the biomass precursor in diluted sulfuric acid, and following thermal activation by KOH at 800 °C. The morphology, structure and textural property of the prepared porous carbon (PC) are investigated by scanning electron m...

Little is known about the competition between and niche differentiation of water nutrients angiosperm gymnosperm tree species under prolonged drought stress, especially in fragile environments. We imposed 21 d treatments on Broussonetia papyrifera Platycladus orientalis measured water, N, P contents, isotopic composition N C, activity assimilation enzymes, stomatal conductance solo planting mix...

Broussonetia papyrifera (L.) L’Hér. ex Vent., a perennial deciduous tree, is used in feed, medicine, papermaking, environmental protection, and ecological restoration. This paper ttook 33 provenances from the natural distribution as research objects, observes their growth nutritional traits, analyzes laws of geographical variation. The repeatability was 0.80–0.88 0.48–0.91, respectively. correl...

Paper mulberry (Broussonetia papyrifera) is widely ensiled to feed sheep in southwestern China, as unconventional woody forage. Feeding lambs with paper silage (PMS) may improve certain feeding characteristics, thereby affecting the growth performance and meat quality. The aim of this study investigate effects four diets PMS on performance, rumen microbial composition, muscle fatty acids profil...

This experiment aimed to study the effect of Broussonetia papyrifera leaf meal (BP) on growth performance, antioxidant capacity, intestinal permeability, and caecal microbiota growing rabbits. A total 240 weaned Ira male rabbits were randomly divided into four groups with six replicates 10 each. The BP was added at 0% (CON), 3.0% (BP3), 6.0% (BP6), 9.0% (BP9). All diets isoenergetic, isoni...
