Chemical composition, cell wall features and degradability of stem, leaf blade and sheath in untreated and alkali-treated rice straw
Three dominant morphological fractions (i.e. leaf blade (LB), leaf sheath (LS) and stem) were analysed for chemical composition and ruminal degradability in three rice straw varieties. In one variety treated with alkali, cell wall features were also characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spe...
