Penelitian bertujuan untuk mengetahui pengaruh pemberian rasio rumput Odot (Pennisetum purpureum cv. Mott) dan Kaliandra (Calliandra calothyrsus) pada saat kemarau terhadap tingkat stres Domba Garut. Penelitian ini dilaksanakan di BPPTDK Margawati Garut dan Analisis darah di Multitest Lab, Bandung pada tanggal 2 Januari 2020 sampai 16 Januari 2020. yang Objek dalam penelitian ini adalah 25 ekor Domba Garut dengan bobot badan 20-40 kg yang diambil secara acak. Metode yang digunakan dalam penelitian ini ialah eksperimental dengan Rancangan Acak Lengkap (RAL) dengan lima perlakuan yang diulang sebanyak lima kali. Perlakuan berupa P0= Tanpa perlakuan, P1= 100% Rumput Gajah, P2= 75% Rumput Gajah + 25% Calliandra calothyrsus, P3= 50% Rumput Gajah + 50% Calliandra calothyrsus, dan P4= 25% Rumput Gajah + 75% Calliandra calothyrsus. Data analisis dengan uji sidik ragam. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa pemberian rasio Rrumput Oodot dan Kka   liandra berpengaruh tidak nyata (P> 0,05) jumlah neutrofil, jumlah limfosit, maupun rasio neutrophil dan limfosit pada Domba Garut, namun ternyata domba-domba di BPPTDK Margawati Garut mengalami rendahnya jumlah neutrofil (neutropenia).

SUMMARYThe best time to plant Calliandra calothyrsus in association with Pennisetum purpureum and the appropriate in-row spacing of Calliandra for fodder and fuelwood production when grown on contour bunds were investigated. Main plot treatments were Pennisetum planted in November 1988 and associated with Calliandra in February 1989, Calliandra planted in November 1988 and associated with Pennisetum in February 1989, and both species planted simultaneously in November 1988. Sub-plot treatments were three within-row spacings of Calliandra. Survival of neither species was affected by time of planting. Total treatment yields of the second and third years were not influenced by time of planting but lower yields of leaf and wood were obtained from the later-planted Calliandra. Total yields were not significantly influenced by the spacing, but leaf and wood yields of the Calliandra at the 25 cm spacing were greater than those at the 100 cm spacing although not significantly different from those at the 50 cm spacing. Neither the time of planting nor the spacing of Calliandra affected the yield of maize or beans grown in the interbund areas. Simultaneous planting of Calliandra and Pennisetum is recommended.

Aim: The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of various combinations of tropical grass-legume species in rations on the biohydrogenation (BH) activity of unsaturated fatty acids (FAs), C18:0 composition, and fermentation profile in an in vitro rumen system. Materials and Methods: Samples of the following five fodder plants were used: One species of grass (Pennisetum purpureum) and four species of tree legumes (Leucaena leucocephala, Gliricidia sepium, Calliandra calothyrsus, and Indigofera zollingeriana). The following eight experimental diets were evaluated: 50% P. purpureum + 50% L. leucocephala (LL I); 50% P. purpureum + 50% G. sepium (GS I); 50% P. purpureum + 50% C. calothyrsus (CC I); 50% P. purpureum + 50% I. zollingeriana (IZ I); 75% P. purpureum + 25% L. leucocephala (LL II); 75% P. purpureum + 25% G. sepium (GS II); 75% P. purpureum + 25% C. calothyrsus (CC II); and 75% P. purpureum + 25% I. zollingeriana (IZ II). Each ration was replicated 3 times. In vitro rumen incubation was performed for 48 h, according to the Tilley and Terry method. Determination of the FA profiles of the forage materials and rumen fluid samples was performed using gas chromatography. Results: The percentage of polyunsaturated FA (PUFA) in the forage materials ranged from 34.18% (P. purpureum) to 74.51% (C. calothyrsus). The percentage of monounsaturated FA (MUFA) ranged from 5.06% (P. purpureum) to 8.71% (L. leucocephala). The percentage of saturated FA (SFA) was the lowest at 19.12% (C. calothyrsus) and highest at 60.76% (P. purpureum). In vitro BH of C18:3 n-3, C18:2 n-6, C18:1 n-9, and C18 PUFA in the experimental diets ranged from 72% to 100%. The BH of C18:1 n-9 in GS I (80%) and IZ I (72%) was significantly different (p<0.05). The percentage of C18:0 was 10-50% and significantly different (p<0.05) among treatments, with the highest (of 50%) in GS II. No significant differences (p>0.05) were observed in the fermentation parameters (pH, total volatile FAs, in vitro dry matter digestibility, and in vitro organic matter digestibility) among the treatments, except in NH3 concentration (p<0.05). Conclusion: The various combinations of tropical legumes do not have significant inhibitory effects on the BH of C18:2 n-6, C18:3 n-3, and C18 PUFA after in vitro incubation for 48 h. Furthermore, an increase in the tropical legume ratio in the ration tends to suppress C18:0 formation after the fermentation simulation process. IZ I has the potential to reduce C18:1 n-9 (MUFA) disappearance and yield an ideal rumen fermentation profile.

Abstract. Makmur M, Zain M, Marlida Y, Khasrad, Jayanegara A. 2019. Fatty acids composition and biohydrogenation reduction agents of tropical forages. Biodiversitas 20: 1917-1922. The study was conducted to determine the composition of fatty acids, measured rumen biohydrogenation reduction agents (total phenols and total tannins) content and selected promising plants in various species of tropical forages. Ten species of tropical forages, namely, Panicum maximum, Cynodon plectostachyus, Pennisetum purpurephoides, Pennisetum purpureum, Brachiaria decumbens, Glyricidia sepium, Calliandra calothyrsus, Stylosanthes guaianensis, Leucaena leucocephala and Indigofera zollingeriana were used in this study. The fatty acids composition (% of total identified fatty acids) which were dominant in grasses were C18: 3n-3 (29%), C16: 0 (28%) and C18: 2n-6 (23%). Whereas in legumes, the significantly higher composition of fatty acids was C18: 3n-3 (42%) followed by C16: 0 (17%) and C18: 2n-6 (17%). The average poly-unsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) composition in grasses was relatively lower (44.6%) than legumes (59%). Likewise the content of total phenols and total tannins (g/100g DM) of grasses (0.91 and 0.41) and legumes (1.72 and 0.70). The selection of the forage plant species was based on the criteria of PUFA composition and biohydrogenation reduction agents using TOPSIS method. The results obtained show that B. decumbens (grass) and I. zollingeriana (legume) had the highest preference value of 0.74 and 0.87, respectively. In conclusion, B. decumbens and I. zollingeriana are forage species that have potential to provide healthier ruminant products.

Se comparó el uso de diferentes dietas con base en heno de alfalfa cultivada (Medicago sativa L.) en Campeche y su relación con un concentrado comercial y pasto Taiwán (Pennisetum purpureum), T1=concentrado comercial, T2=T1+heno de alfalfa, T3=T1+pasto Taiwán, T4=heno de alfalfa. Se evaluó el comportamiento productivo y metabólico de corderos en sistema intensivo utilizando 20 corderos machos con encaste de Pelibuey, Dorper y Black Belly de 12.5±1 kg de peso vivo (PV). Se midió el consumo de materia seca total (CMS), la ganancia diaria de peso (GDP), la conversión alimenticia (CA), y la digestibilidad in situ de la materia seca (DISMS). También fueron evaluados el pH, nitrógeno amoniacal (NH3) y la concentración de ácidos grasos volátiles (AGV) en líquido ruminal. La mejor GDP en gramos por día, de 234 g (p?0.05) se obtuvo en el T2; en contraste, el T3 mostró la menor GDP. La dieta que incluyó la mezcla de heno de alfalfa y concentrado mejoró significativamente las condiciones de las variables pH, NH3 y AGV (p?0.05).

This study was carried out to characterise Pennisetum purpureum harvested from some selected locations in S outh-W estern Nigeria using microsatellite markers. Leaf parts of growing young elephant grass (Pennisetum purpureum) were harvested and immediately preserved in ethanol solution before DNA extraction. Two (2) SSR primers (CTM59 and Xtxp278) were used to assess genetic diversity in Pennisetum purpureum. The result shows that 72% of the molecular variations in the elephant grass exists within the population with 28% among the population; there were no unique characteristics among the Nine (9) populations. Nei genetic index ranged from 0.067 (lowest) observed between Isokan and Odeda populations to 0.158 (highest), between Ifedore and Ikoyi Populations. Morphological characterization showed moderate diversity with two major clusters and one minor cluster. Keyword: Elephant grass; cultivars; locations; markers
