English Abstract

Cell wall degradability and partitioning factor (PF) of whole crop forage and straw of two oat ecotypes from west of Iran was studied.

The oat ecotypes were grown under the similar agronomic condition in three replicates in a randomized complete block design at Research Farm of School of Agriculture, Razi University.

There were no significant differences between chemical composition of forages and straws (except ADL) from 2 ecotyps (p > 0.05).

The mean of In vitro true DM degradability (IVTDMD) and NDF degradability (NDFD) of oat forages were 59.9 and 34.2 % while the mean of IVTDMD and NDFD of oat straws were 48.7 and 21.3 %, respectively.

The mean calculated PF from forages and straws were 2.83 and 2.92 mg ml-1.

The results of this study indicated that whole crop forage and straw from these two ecotypes of oat have similar and sometimes better nutritive quality compared to the most of the known varieties.
