• Fatty acids in forages. I. Factors affecting concentrations (2003, background): “In a study with eight temperate grass species, Dewhurst et al. (2001) reported that orchardgrass had the lowest C18:1 concentration and timothy had the highest C18:2 concentration.”
• Managing Mediterranean pastures in order to enhance the level of beneficial fatty acids in sheep milk (2005, result): “This pattern is similar to that found by Dewhurst et al. (2001) for temperate forage grown in northern Fig.”
• Increasing the concentrations of beneficial polyunsaturated fatty acids in milk produced by dairy cows in high-forage systems (2006, background): “For example Italian ryegrass had the highest levels of fatty acids in vegetative material, but the lowest levels during the summer flowering period (Dewhurst et al., 2001).”
• Progress in breeding perennial forage grasses for temperate agriculture (2003, background): “There is variation among ryegrass species and varieties for total fatty acid content and the proportion of linoleic acids, although this genetic variation was small compared with variation through the growing season (Dewhurst et al. 2001).”
• The effects of feeding various forages on fatty acid composition of bovine milk fat: A review (2018, background): “Such level and trends were reported by Dewhurst et al. (2001, 2003c), Elgersma et al. (2003, 2005), Clapham et al. (2005) and Van Ranst (2009a).”
• Temperate grassland: key developments in the last century and future perspectives (2006, background): “Effects of ensiling on PUFA have already been studied (Dewhurst & King 1998) and variation between grass varieties and species in content of PUFA and in susceptibility to biohydrogenation in the rumen have been identified (Dewhurst et al. 2001; Elgersma et al. 2003).”
• Tanker milk variability in fatty acids according to farm feeding and husbandry practices in a French semi-mountain area (2008, background): “The C18:3n-3 intake may be higher during grazing [17, 31], especially for the young grass.”
• Canopy morphology and nutritional quality traits as potential grazing value indicators for Lolium perenne varieties (2002, background): “Dewhurst et al. (2001) reported significant differences in fatty acid content and composition in a range of grass species.”
