Abstract:

【Objective】The effects of daisy plant (Artemisia annua) extracts (AAE) on the fermentation indexes such as acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid in the rumen in dairy cows were studied in this paper, and furthermore the effects on B. fibrisolvens and C. proteoclasticum for regulating CLA synthesis in the rumen were researched. The purpose of this study was to explore the effects of AAE on rumen fermentation in dairy cows, and to investigate the part mechanism of effecting CLA synthesis from the rumen.【Method】Fifteen dairy cows (600±29) kg, parity 2-3, in lactating (158±3) d and milk yield (22.8±1.8)kg·d -1 were used in completely random design in 40 d experimental periods. The experimental dairy cows were integrated management, free ingestion, free drinking water, feeding 2 times per day, milking 2 times (4:30 a.m., 16:30 p.m.). The experiments groups comprised the control and two treatments (treatment one and treatment two, the doses of AAE for supplementation was 96 g·d -1 and 160 g·d -1 for every cow, respectively). The experimental period comprised a 9-d adaptation and a 31-d the formal period. 【Result】 The results showed as follows: ruminal pH values tended to increase in two treatments for AAE supplementation compared with the control, which increased by 2.63% and 8.61%, respectively (P>0.05). The concentrations for acetic acid, propionic acid and butyric acid decreased significantly in two treatments except for isovaleric acid and valeric acid in the low dose of AAE compared with the control (P<0.05). AAE supplementation increased the relative percentage of B. fibrisolvens in rumen mixture and rumen liquid (P<0.05), and decreased the relative percentage of B. fibrisolvens in rumen solid (P>0.05). AAE supplementation decreased the relative percentage of C. proteoclasticum in rumen liquid and rumen solid (P<0.05), and increased the relative percentage of C. proteoclasticum in rumen mixture (P>0.05). 【Conclusion】 It was concluded that AAE supplementation had adverse effect on rumen fermentation characteristics, and had different effects on B. fibrisolvens and C. proteoclasticum on different contents of the rumen, but the general trend was increasing the relative percentage of B. fibrisolvens, and decreased the relative percentage of C. proteoclasticum, which ws beneficial to CLA synthesis.
