| The impact of fresh legume types or silage on the composition of milk fatty acids and transcription of enzymes involved in the synthesis of milk fat in cows was studied. Three groups of cows grazed white clover, red clover and lucerne, respectively. A fourth group of cows was fed maize/grass silage. The cows grazing high proportions of legumes produced significantly more C18:1 trans-11, C18:2 cis9-trans11, C18:2 trans10-cis12 and C18:3 fatty acids than cows fed silage. White clover and lucerne grazing resulted in significantly less output of C18:1 trans9 in milk than red clover grazing and maize/grass silages. The transcription of Stearoyl-CoA desaturase (SCD) in mammary tissue was significantly increased by grassing high proportions legume whereas fatty... |
