Samples and extracts of foliage from African multipurpose trees (MPT) were screened for their effects on rumen protozoa and bacteria. The MPT species tested were Acacia aneura, Acacia angustissima, Chamaecytisus palmensis, Brachychiton populneum, Flindersia maculosa, Sesbania sesban, Leucaena leu...

Samples of foliage from multipurpose leguminous trees (MPT) which had been selected as potential feed supplements for ruminants were examined for their chemical composition and in situ degradation characteristics, and were compared with alfalfa (Medicago sativa) hay and teff (Eragrostis abyssinic...

Nine different accessions of Sesbania sesban were examined for their toxicity to ciliate protozoa from sheep receiving a mixed grass hay-barley/fishmeal concentrate in Aberdeen, Scotland. Several accessions were much more toxic than those (ILRI 10865, ILRI 15036) identified and tested in a previo...

This workshop was conducted to identify and prioritise areas of rumen ecology which are promising for their potential impact on improving nutrition status of tropical ruminants, to develop a rumen ecology research programme for ILRI based on relevance to developing countries and ILRI's comparativ...

There are conflicting Reports in the literature about the benefits of defaunation, the removal of ciliate protozoa from the rumen, in ruminant production. Ciliate protozoa are not essential for proper functioning of the rumen nor for the life of the host and that their contribution to microbial p...

Foliage from the tropical leguminous tree, Sesbania sesban, is toxic to rumen protozoa in vitro, due to materials present in a saponins-containing extract of the foliage (Newbold et al 1997). Suppression of protozoal numbers in vivo when S. sesban is added to the diet is either transient or non-e...
