This study investigated the effect of several ferulic acid esterase producing (FAE+) lactobacilli strains on the fermentation of corn stover (CS). Results showed that L. plantarum (ETC182, CRL046, CRL2241) significantly increased the organic matter in the silages, L. brevis CRL2239 reduced the dry matter loss, and L. johnsonii CRL2238 increased the degradability of acid detergent fiber. Although these results were not correlated with the FAE activity and growth/acidification studies, it demonstrated the potential of several FAE+ lactobacilli strains as CS inoculants and encouraged further research.
Corn stover (CS) is an abundant lignocellulosic by-product of the grain industry. Ferulic acid esterase producing (FAE+)-lactobacilli can potentially improve ensiled forages' nutritive value through the hydrolysis of ferulic acid ester bonds present in cell walls during the fermentation process, but this has not been addressed in CS silage. In this study, we characterized 8 FAE+ lactobacilli regarding their FAE activity and inoculant aptitude: Lactobacillus (L.) johnsonii (CRL2237, CRL2238, CRL2240), L. plantarum (ETC182, CRL046, CRL2241), L. fermentum CRL1446 and L. brevis CRL2239. Next, 25% dry matter (DM) CS mini silos were prepared and either not inoculated (UN) or inoculated with each strain (10(5) CFU g fresh matter(-1)). Compared to UN, DM loss was significantly reduced in CRL046 and CRL2239, and organic matter increased in CRL2241-inoculated silages. Although the rest of the digestibility measures were not improved, in situ acid detergent fiber degradability (ADFD) was increased by the CRL2238 strain when compared to UN. Results in inoculated silages were not correlated with FAE activity quantification or growth/acidification studies in a CS-derived culture broth. This study demonstrates the potential of several FAE+ lactobacilli strains as CS inoculants and encourages further research.
