The CTPS was treated without (CK) or with Lentilactobacillus buchneri (L), yeast (Y), and a mixture of L. buchneri and yeast (LY). SEM, standard error of the mean; DM, dry matter; FM; fresh matter; CP, crude protein; NDF, neutral detergent fiber; ADF, acid detergent fiber; ADL, acid detergent lignin.
a–cMeans within the same row with different letters are significantly different (p < 0.05).
