Supplemental materials for JDS20408
Description
Supplementary Figure 1. Violin plots of the (A) number of OTUs, (B) Chao index, (C) Shannon diversity index and (4) Simpson index for rumen fluid samples collected from dairy cows fed corn silage (CS) based diets (40% of diet, DM basis) substituted with different rates of sweet sorghum silage (SS). SS0 = 40% CS without SS; SS25 = 30% CS + 10% SS; SS50 = 20% CS + 20% SS; Supplementary Table 1. Differentially abundant phylum (relative abundance, %) identified in ruminal microbial among treatments with different substitution rates of whole plant corn silage with sweet sorghum silage; Supplementary Table 2. Differentially abundant genus (relative abundance, %) identified in ruminal microbial among treatments with different substitution rates of whole plant corn silage with sweet sorghum silage.
