{"title":"Maize silage: incidence of moulds during conservation.","authors":"J Pelhate","doi":"","DOIUrl":"","url":null,"abstract":"<p><p>The basic principle of silage making--preservation under anaerobiosis--is recognized. With this environment the substrate can harbour a spontaneous and active microflora that can be divided into two sequential phases; a bacterial phase followed by a yeast phase. The imperfections of the techniques used in making silage, however, frequently result in invasion by fungi. The moulds that are responsible for serious changes (loss of nutrients, mycotoxins) are classified into a dozen characteristic divisions (species or groups of ecologically related species). These appear in a definite chronological order and form a relatively simple model of the development of the flora. This dynamic transformation can also be utilized profitably to determine the quality of the fodder and estimate the storage life. A simple mycological puncture analysis reveals in fact the stage reached in the fixed sequence, and the results enable extrapolations to be made regarding the history and the future of the material. It is also hoped that a better knowledge of the biotope will lead to complete control of the floral equilibrium, good conservation and high quality foodstuffs.</p>","PeriodicalId":75858,"journal":{"name":"Folia veterinaria Latina","volume":"7 1","pages":"1-16"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"11539989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

It was shown that the intramuscular injection of 1-2 mg PGF2alpha (in the region behind the ear) could result in oestrus, ovulation and subsequent conception in a considerable number (78.3%) of virgin pigs with persistent clinical anoestrus (15-16 months old), the start of normal oestrous cycles in pigs 10-11 months old and also the early appearance of oestrous symptoms in pigs of prepuberal age (6-7 months). As the PGF2alpha treatment did not have any adverse effects on the composition and the normal growth of the piglets (except for a smaller litter size in the prepuberal gilts, probably due to age of the animals), while transitory side-effects only occurred exceptionally after treatment (slight excitement), the use of PGF2alpha is suggested for production of functional recovery in virgin gilts with apparent persistent clinical anoestrus, for the synchronization of oestrus in primiparous gilts on farms with no apparent reproductive disorders, and for the concentration of births also in pluriparous pigs past the 12th day of the normal oestrous cycle before injection, and for the induction of precocious oestrus and subsequent early conception in gilts of prepuberal age.</p>","PeriodicalId":75858,"journal":{"name":"Folia veterinaria Latina","volume":"7 1","pages":"71-81"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"1977-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"12070467","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
