CA 2301766

Methods for identification of tannin-expressing alfalfa plants, alfalfa plants having measurable endogenous tannin levels and methods of breeding for alfalfa cultivars having measurable endogenous tannin levels are disclosed. Methods for feeding ruminants with forage from alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.) plants having measurable endogenous tannin levels, which provides bloat safety, bypass proteins, increased pest resistance and improved ruminant health and nutrition are also disclosed. The methods involve the use of alfalfa plants having measurable endogenous tannin levels as a major source of feed.

L'invention concerne des procédés d'identification de plants de luzerne exprimant le tanin, des plants de luzerne ayant des niveaux de tanin endogène mesurables et des procédés de culture destinés à des cultivars de luzerne ayant des niveaux de tanin endogène mesurables. L'invention concerne également des procédés permettant de nourrir des ruminants avec du fourrage à base de plants de luzerne (Medicago sativa L.) ayant des niveaux de tanin endogène mesurables, non météorisant, apportant des protéines digestibles dans l'intestin grêle, assurant une résistance accrue aux parasites et améliorant la santé et la nutrition des ruminants. Les méthodes comprennent l'utilisation de plants de luzerne ayant des niveaux de tanin endogène mesurables en tant que source d'alimentation principale.
