Comparison between in situ dry matter degradation and in vitro gas production of tannin-containing leaves from four tree species

Abstract: Dry matter (DM) degradation of Glycrrhiza glabra L, Arbutus andrachne, Juniperus communis, and Pistica lentiscus was determined using two different techniques: (i) the in vitro gas production and (ii) the in situ nylon bag degradability technique. Samples were incubated in situ and in vitro for 3, 6, 12, 24, 48, 72 and 96 h. In situ and in vitro DM degradation kinetics were described using the equation y = a + b (1 -e ct ). At all incubation times except 3 and 72 h the cumulative gas production of J. communi… Show more
