Six plant sources of hydrolyzable tannins (HT) or HT and condensed tannins (CT; designated as HT1, HT2, HT3, HT + CT1, HT + CT2, and HT + CT3) were evaluated to determine their effects in vitro on CH4 production and on ruminal archaeal and protozoa populations, and to assess potential differences in biological activities between sources containing HT only or HT and CT. Samples HT1, HT2, and HT3 contained only HT, whereas samples HT + CT1, HT + CT2, and HT + CT3 contained HT and CT. In experiment 1, in vitro incubations with samples containing HT or HT + CT resulted in a decrease in CH4 production of 0.6 and 5.5%, respectively, compared with that produced by incubations containing the added tannin binder polyethylene glycol-6000. Tannin also suppressed the population of methanogenic archaea in all incubations except those with HT2, with an average decrease of 11.6% in HT incubations (15.8, 7.09, and 12.0 in HT1, HT2, and HT3) and 28.6% in incubations containing HT + CT (35.0, 40.1, and 10.8 in HT + CT1, HT + CT2, and HT + CT3) when compared with incubations containing added polyethylene glycol-6000. The mean decrease in protozoal counts was 12.3% in HT and 36.2% in HT + CT incubations. Tannins increased in vitro pH, reduced total VFA concentrations, increased propionate concentrations, and decreased concentrations of iso-acids. In experiment 2, when a basal diet was incubated with graded levels of HT + CT1, HT + CT2, and HT + CT3, the total gas and CH4 production and archaeal and protozoal populations decreased as the concentration of tannins increased. Our results confirm that tannins suppress methanogenesis by reducing methanogenic populations in the rumen either directly or by reducing the protozoal population, thereby reducing methanogens symbiotically associated with the protozoal population. In addition, tannin sources containing both HT and CT were more potent in suppressing methanogenesis than those containing only HT.
