Comparison of methane production between C3 and C4 grasses and legumes (2011, background): “Similarly, studies with temperate legumes found high variability in CH4 production in ruminants depending on the presence or absence of secondary metabolites (Waghorn et al., 2002; Waghorn, 2008; Beauchemin et al., 2009; Dewhurst et al., 2009).”
Nutritional management to improve sheep and goat performances in semiarid regions (2010, background): “Positive effects of tannins on ruminant digestion and performances were well reviewed in the literature (see for example reviews by Min et al., 2003; Makkar et al., 2007; Waghorn, 2008).”
In vitro fermentation patterns and methane production of sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia Scop.) hay with different condensed tannin contents (2011, background): “From an environmental point of view, feeding ruminants with forage containing CTs may offer potential benefits because of the reduction in urine nitrogen excretion and the depressive effect on rumen methane (CH4) emission (Waghorn, 2008).”
Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: I. A review of enteric methane mitigation options. (2013, neutral): “…been a number of experiments with monensin as a rumen modifier in various production systems, where CH4 production was studied as a main objective either from a mitigation or from an energy loss perspective (Sauer et al., 1998; Van Vugt et al., 2005; Waghorn et al., 2008; Grainger et al., 2010).”
Sainfoin (Onobrychis viciifolia): a beneficial forage legume (2011, background): “Enhanced amino acid absorption has also been demonstrated for other tanniferous species such as L. corniculatus (Waghorn, 2008).”
Benefits of Condensed Tannins in Forage Legumes Fed to Ruminants: Importance of Structure, Concentration, and Diet Composition (2019, background): “…lespedeza, and prairie clover (Dalea purpurea Vent.) have been evaluated in the United States, Canada, New Zealand, and Switzerland (Mosjidis 2001; Waghorn 2008; Häring et al., 2008; Berard et al., 2011; Li et al., 2014; Grabber et al., 2015), sulla in Australia (de Koning et al., 2003, 2010;…”
