Clostridia spore formation during aerobic deterioration of maize and sorghum silages as influenced by<i>Lactobacillus buchneri</i>and<i>Lactobacillus plantarum</i>inoculants

Abstract

The data indicated that clostridia spore outgrowth can take place during silo feedout in aerobic-deteriorated silages and that LB inoculation reduces the risk of clostridia outgrowth after silage opening by increasing the aerobic stability.
