PSX-A-3 Characterization of Short-Season Hybrid Corn Stover and Barley Greenfeed Components Through in Vitro Digestibility and Methane Production
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract This study compared the nutrient composition, in vitro methane production, and dry matter (DM) and fiber disappearance of barley greenfeed (seed heads, SEED; leaves, BLEAF; and stems, STEM) and short-season high-moisture corn stover (cobs, COB; leaves and husks, CLEAF; and stalks, STALK) to wheat straw (STRAW). Each plant component was analyzed for DM and neutral detergent fiber corrected for organic matter (aNDFom). Plant components were incubated in in vitro batch cultures for 30 h during which total gas production and methane were measured. Incubation residues were analyzed for DM and aNDFom. The aNDFom (% of DM) was different (P< 0.01; SEM = 1.64) amongst treatments: COB (82.1) = STRAW (75.2) = STALK (72.8) = CLEAF (69.4) > STEM (52.5) = BLEAF (50.4) > SEED (39.1). The DM disappearance (% of DM) of barley components was the greatest (P< 0.01; SEM = 1.734; BLEAF = 60.98, STEM = 57.15, and SEED = 56.52), followed by CLEAF (48.15) and STALK (40.47), but STALK did not differ from the least digestible components of COB (37.21) and STRAW (35.82). Disappearance of aNDFom (% of aNDFom) was greatest (P< 0.01; SEM = 1.734) for BLEAF (63.27), then CLEAF (53.40) and SEED (45.65), but the other components (COB = 44.77, STALK = 44.17, STEM = 42.93, and STRAW = 42.57) were lowest and did not differ from SEED. A difference in methane production (mL/g of DM digested) was observed (P< 0.01; SEM = 1.392) in the following manner: COB (52.07) = STEM (51.04) = STRAW (47.88) = SEED (47.43) > BLEAF (40.83) = CLEAF (38.20) = STALK (36.89). These data provide fiber digestibility coefficients and methane production by plant components and confirms that fiber content is inversely related to DM digestibility for barley and corn components at grain harvest.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
