Evaluating the Effectiveness of Screened Lactic Acid Bacteria in Improving Crop Residues Silage: Fermentation Parameter, Nitrogen Fraction, and Bacterial Community.

ABSTRACT: Ensiling characteristics of sweet potato vine (SPV) and peanut straw (PS), as well as the effects of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains, Lactococcus Lactis MK524164 (LL) and Lactobacillus farciminis MK524159 (LF), were investigated in this study. Fermentation parameters, nitrogen fractions, and bacterial community of SPV and PS were monitored at intervals during the ensiling process. The results showed that inoculating LAB increased lactate production (2.23 vs. 2.73%; 0.42 vs. 1.67% DM), accelerated pH decline (5.20 vs. 4.47; 6.30 vs. 5.35), and decreased butyrate (0.36% DM vs. not detected), ammonia-N (6.41 vs. 4.18% CP), or nonprotein-N (43.67 vs. 35.82% CP). Meanwhile, it altered the silage bacterial community, where the relative abundance of Lactobacillus was incre
