Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) is a perennial forage crop with desirable properties adapted to temperate climate conditions. The purpose of this research was study the phenotypic correlation coefficients between dry yield and some morphological traits, identify direct indirect effects associated traits. Thus, 32 ecotypes (landraces) were assessed in randomized complete block design layo...

Background: Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia) is a forage crop that yields high in arid and calcareous soils cultivated large areas. There aren’t many genetic diversity studies on the varieties of cultured sainfoin. This study was conducted to determine degree relationship between 23 landraces one registered variety. Methods: To take samples from populations, seeds were sown field 2014. Samples ...

Non-ammonia nitrogen (NAN) passage to the small intestine and disappearance of NAN in that organ have been studied in multi-cannulated sheep on pasture or fed indoors. Forages under investigation included a number of subtropical grasses, foggages and hay, temperate grasses, lucerne (Medicago sativa), triticale (Triticale X Secale), oven-dried ryegrass (Lolium multiflorum), and the tannin-contai...
