Microbial communities and natural fermentation of corn silages prepared with farm bunker-silo in Southwest China
Abstract
This study analyzed the variation of microbial communities, their achieved fermentation quality, and the association between microbial diversity and environmental factors after ensiling of 96 samples prepared with bunker-silo in Southwest China. Most of natural corn silages achieved good fermentation, e.g., low pH value (<4.2) and high levels of lactic acid (36.26-79.83 mg/g DM). Weissella species were the dominant epiphytic bacteria in raw material, while Lactobacillus and Acetobacter species were prevalent in silages. Natural Lactobacillus and Pediococcus species produced more lactic acid during ensiling, while the production of acetic acid was highly positively correlated with both Acetobacter and Bradyrhizobium species. Rainfall and humidity affected community of epiphytic bacteria on the corn material, and the temperature affected richness of bacterial species during ensiling. The results confirmed that microbial community of silages in hot and humid area is unique and climatic factors ultimately affect the fermentation quality through influencing microbial community.

Each is checked against this paper’s own text: does it say what the citing paper says it does?
In the citing paper
“Next-generation sequencing (NGS) has been used to analyze and quantify the silage microbiota [12], providing a relevant basis for further investigation of mixed silage fermentation.”
In the citing paper
“This difference may be because the bacterial communities in the mixed silage came from different environments, their own characteristics, or the number of microorganisms on the raw materials [12].”
In the citing paper
“On the other hand, an unsuccessful fermentation process is characterized by an increasingly complex microbial community after fermentation [58].”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
