Alfalfa and red clover as a protein source for ruminants
(Institute for Animal Husbandry, Belgrade-Zemun, Serbia, 2021-10-06) Marković, Jordan; Milenković, Jasmina; Andjelković, Snežana
High level of milk protein, increased dietary costs, as well as care for the environment have made nitrogen utilization a central component in balancing ruminant meals. Excess crude protein in meals can lead to unnecessary dietary costs, without resulting in increased milk and milk protein production. In addition, most of the excess nitrogen is excreted in the urine and is an ecologically labile form. On the other hand, poor amino acids balance will limit milk protein yield, making production more expensive than overeating. Balancing protein according to metabolic needs, with an adequate ratio of rumen undegradable protein and rumen degradable protein, and without overeating will have positive effects not only on meal price and profitability, but also on the environment. More efficient utilization of nutrients requires knowledge of how different fractions of nutrients pass through the digestive tract. Grass and legumes contain the largest and most variable part of non-protein nitrogen compounds. Although, a number of non-protein nitrogen compounds and true protein together represent crude protein, it is clear that the nutritional value of crude protein in ruminant feeds is better explained based on their rate and extent of rumen degradation. There are a number of factors that affect the amount of crude protein that will be degraded in the rumen. Legumes are high quality forages rich in protein, but these proteins are intensively degraded in the rumen. Red clover proteins are more slowly degraded than alfalfa protein.

Crops are affected by various types of abiotic stress, resulting in a decrease in agricultural productivity thereby challenging food-security issues. Among the different types of abiotic stresses, the temperature has been regarded as a major one followed by salt and drought stress. The increasing temperature causes an alteration in the period of growth and the distribution of crop plants. High-temperature also damages the membrane, some proteins, inactivate the main enzymes and disturb the synthesis of biomolecules. Moreover, heat stress has been found to restrict the process of cell division as well. On the other hand, low-temperature is the main determinant of freezing which results in the reduction of plant cellular metabolism. Freezing stress forms ice-crystals in the cells that further leads to cell death due to dehydration and leakage of electrolyte. Generally, the stress tolerance in crops has been determined based on the cultivar's ability to withstand freezing temperatures; however, with advancements in microbiological techniques, several stress-tolerant microbes have been identified which either through direct or indirect mechanisms alleviate temperature-stress in plants. Furthermore, the function of cryoprotectant compounds and their signaling mechanisms in plants have been also discussed in detail for signifying their role in the alleviation of cold stress in plants. This review highlights the responses of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) that are metabolically active under thermal stress conditions, and result in the production of metabolites that promotes plant growth and facilitate the uptake of nutrients under thermal stress in agro-ecosystems.

Meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.) is one of the most important perennial grasses foranimal feed production on grasslands. It is characterized by high and stabile yield potential andgood biomass quality. The aim of this study was to determine genetic and phenotypic correlation coefficients of seven most important traits of two synthetic cultivars (Kruševački 21 and Pradel). Individual plants for hybridization, in order to obtain progeny by the method of Comstock and Robinson, were selected completely randomly. In order to examine the obtained progeny, the study was performed in an experimental field of the Institute for Forage Crops, in two replications. The experiment was set up according to the Nested Design I, with sets within the replications. In Kruševački 21, 60 full-sib progeny were studied in two sets, while in the Pradel a total of 39 full-sib progeny were studied. Within each full-sib progeny, 60 plants were analyzed. Statistically and high statistically relation was obtained between some traits and presented as genetic (rg) and phenotypic (rf) correlation coefficients. In cultivar K-21 very high statistically significant genetic correlation coefficients were determined between heading date and leaf length (rg=0.873**), plant height and number of generative tillers per plant (rg=0.893**) and dry matter yield in the first cut and annual dry matter yield (rg=0.988**). In cultivar Pradel very high statistically significant relationship was obtained between heading date and plant height (rg=0.978**), heading date and number of vegetative tillers per plant (rg=0.926**) and annual dry matter yield with one side, and plant height (rg=0.912**) and dry matter yield in the first cut (rg=0.978**), on the other side.

(University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Agriculture, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia University of Belgrade, Faculty of Agriculture, Serbia Mediterranean Agronomic Institute of Bari (CIHEAM - IAMB) Italy, 2023-10-05) Bekčić, Filip; Duduk, Natasa; Lugić, Zoran; Radović, Jasmina; Babić, Snežana; Stepić, Marija; Andjelković, Snežana
Red clover (Trifolium pratense L.) is an important forage legume that can be found in nature or as cultivated crop in monoculture or in grass-legume mixtures. The great importance of red clover is the fact that it lives in symbiosis with Rhizobium leguminosarum bv. trifoli. In addition to promoting plant growth, productivity and biomass, the bacteria also have an important role in disease control. Apart from useful microorganisms, many soil pathogenic microorganisms inhabit red clover roots and under favorable conditions they cause infections and diseases of the cultivated plants. On the infected red clover plants Fusarium spp. can cause several symptoms: vascular wilt on older plants, dumping of seedlings, root rot, rot of root base and crown rot. In the present study, the antagonistic potential was evaluated for two bacteria isolates preliminarily determined as R. leguminosarum bv. trifoli (CD1 and CD6) against three isolates Fusarium spp. (G1, G2 and G3) who were obtained from the roots of symptomatic red clover plants. The research was performed in in vitro agar plate (PDA medium) by methods of dual culture (“bacterial ring”). The comparison of growth assessment of fungi after they were grown together with rhizobia in a single plate and growth of fungi in individual plates was performed. Both rhizobia isolates showed significant antifungal activity against all the tested phytopathogenic fungi. Growth inhibition of G1, G2 and G3 was evaluated (%) using both rhizobia isolates, CD1 varied from 30 to 43 % and CD6 from 14 to 32 %.

(Informa UK Limited, 2023-06) Mitic, Violeta; Nikolić, Jelena; Andjelković, Snežana; Petrović, Mirjana; Stankov Jovanovic, Vesna; Milenković, Jasmina
Considering the interest in the consumption of faba bean and study of antioxidants in natural food resources, methanol extracts of fourteen Vicia faba cultivars harvested from a two-year field experiment were studied for their phenolic compounds, proanthocyanidines, and antioxidant activities by the DPPH free radical scavenging assay, ABTS cation radical decolorization assay, ferric reducing antioxidant power (FRAP), cupric reducing antioxidant capacity (CUPRAC), and total reducing power (TRP). The results indicate significant differences among the populations in their content of polyphenols and proanthocyanidine, resulting in variations in antioxidant activity of seed extracts. The storage of V. faba mature seeds under uncontrolled, but identical conditions decreased the total phenol content and antioxidant properties. The total phenols were from 10.12 ± 0.19 to 18.53 ± 0.14 mg GAE g−1 DE (2021 year) and 19.52 ± 0.16 to 26.94 ± 0.34 mg GAE g−1 DE (2022 year). In the 2022 growing season, the DPPH free radical scavenging activity had higher values for all populations from 4.83 ± 0.002 to 6.17 ± 0.003 g mg TE g−1 DE. Hierarchical cluster analysis and principal component analysis obtained from antioxidative profiles grouped the samples into two major clusters. The first cluster consists of extracts of V. faba cultivars from the 2021 growing season, while the V. faba cultivars from the 2022 growing season are in second cluster. Tested cultivars can be used as a readily available source of natural antioxidants.

The use of plant growth-promoting rhizobacteria (PGPR) in the production of medicinal plants is crucial, because agricultural chemicals are no longer acceptable in their production. This paper discusses the results of a recent study undertaken to isolate and characterize PGPR isolates of Bacillus, Pseudomonas and Azotobacter from common thyme (Thymus vulgaris L.) rhizospheric soil and monitor the effect of their application on seed germination and plant growth. The effect of selected isolates on seed germination and initial growth of common thyme was examined in controlled conditions. The impact of the isolates on the content of biochemical stress markers (total phenols and lipid peroxidation intensity) in germinated seeds was determined. The influence of the isolates on the plant growth under well-watered conditions (watered to 80% of water holding capacity (WHC)) and under water deficit stress (watered to 40% of WHC) was evaluated by measuring plant root and stem length in semi-controlled conditions. This study confirmed that indigenous rhizospheric bacteria of common thyme have multiple plant growth-promoting (PGP) properties. Among Bacillus 10 isolates, Pseudomonas 12 isolates and Azotobacter 9 isolates, only Pseudomonas isolate (P53) had all the tested PGP properties. The applied isolates had a positive effect on the examined plant growth parameters. The highest percentage of germination was determined in the treatment with P53 isolate (96%). The highest response for vigour index was observed with isolate A1 (3807%). All isolates, except B58 and B60, reduced stress by lowering the amount of both or at least one stress related molecules. The results of the experiment led to the conclusion that isolates Azotobacter sp. A1 and Pseudomonas sp. P53, both ACC-deaminase-producing bacteria, have the best effect on plant growth under well-watered and drought-stressed conditions, which indicates their potential to be used as a biofertiliser for promoting common thyme growth.

(Woodhead Publishing (Elsevier), 2021) Mitra, D.; Chaudhary, P.; Vermac, D.; Khoshrud, B.; Senapati, A.; Mahakur, B.; Panneerselvame, P.; Das Mohapatra, P.K.; Andjelković, Snežana
Stress mitigation strategies present in plants alleviate stress caused by biotic and abiotic factors. In the current era, multi-omics approaches involving genomics, transcriptomics, proteomics, and metabolomics have expanded the horizon of molecular events participating in response to environmental and edaphic mediated stresses. The vigilant amalgamation of these approaches have supported a high level of information generated about root-level mechanisms involved in the alleviation of different plant-stress. Different bioinformatics tools provide a way in which huge amount of data are interpreted in a better form. This combination of multi-omics and bioinformatics approaches increases the genetic knowledge of researchers to improve the plant varieties in respect to their stress tolerance potential. Here, we provide an overview of bioinformatics resources, describing collections from multi-omics approaches, ranging from raw-data to complete databases, particularly highlighting those tools which have been used for answering the long-standing questions in the field of biotic and abiotic stress research.

(Research Institute of Mountain Stockbreeding and Agriculture, Troyan, 2023-10-01) Marković, Jordan; Petrović, Mirjana; Lazarević, Đorđe; Andjelković, Snežana; Zornic, Vladimir; Vasić, Tanja; Štrbanović, Ratibor
The importance of perennial grasses is multiple. They represent the basis of sustainable animal husbandry and the basis of the animal feed industry, forming the staple food of ruminants in areas with a moderate climate as components of natural and sown grasslands, natural and sown meadows that can be used through mowing, haylage and silage. Adequate and advanced management of perennial grasses results in low prices offorages, significantly lower than concentrated feed. Italian ryegrass is characterized by rapid development and production of a large amount of quality forage crops.

The composition of the microbial community in rhizosphere can affect plant growth, nutrients uptake, and stress tolerance. In rhizosphere bacteria belonging to the genus Azotobacter there are free nitrogen-fixers promoting growth and health of plants. The aim of this research was to investigate the effect of different native isolates (SA74, SB94, MA7 and their combination) Azotobacter spp. on initial growth of plants tall fescue (Festuca arundinacea Scherb) and meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds). The experiment was carried out in semi-controlled conditions. For this study, seeds of tall fescue cultivar Kruševački 20 (K-20) and meadow fescue cultivar Kruševački 21 (K-21) were planted in pots filled with alluvial soil with slightly acidic reaction. The height, green mass per plant, root length and root weight per plant were determined. Four variants of microbial inoculation were compared with the growth of non-inoculated control. The significance of difference between examined treatments was determined by Fisher’s LSD test (p<0.05). At tall fescue, applied isolate SB94 in all investigated parameters had a negative effect. The two other isolates as well as combination of three isolates had a positive effect on initial growth of plants. Only in plant height, the application of a combination of isolates did not have positive result compared to the control. At meadow fescue, inoculation with combined isolates positively influenced plant height andgreen mass per plant. Root length was significantly increased only in treatment with isolate MA7. The influence of inoculation on root weight per plant was not noted.

(University of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca, 2019-11-08) Zornic, Vladimir; Stevović, Vladeta; Lugić, Zoran; Andjelković, Snežana; Jevtić, Goran; Radović, Jasmina; Petrović, Mirjana
Natural grasslands are significant resources for forage production, which is not exploited enough, mostly because of low production, as a result of bad grasslands management. The research has been carried out on the association Danthonietum calycinae to evaluate the effects of different nitrogen application rates (N20, N80 and N140) and lime (1 tha-1) on the floristic composition, soil microbes and dry matter yield. Botanic composition was strongly influenced by the treatments, especially by N applications. Nitrogen fertilisation led to significant increase of grass species in the association (from 57% to 82%), while higher rate of nitrogen caused a significant decrease of plants from other families (especially legumes). Application of low and medium rate of nitrogen positively effect on microbial abundant in soil, but the highest dose (140 kg N) reduced all microbial count, except fungi. Mineral nitrogen fertilisation had a favourable effect on dry matter yield in all treatments. The highest increase in dry matter yield relative to the control was in N140 treatments (6.66 t ha-1). Results indicated that optimal applications of nutrients for this association is application of PK and lime and 80 kg of nitrogen which enable high yield (6.38 t ha-1) in comparison with control (3.16 t ha-1) and preserving soil fertility and the environment at the same time.

This study reported the concentrations of Pb, Cd, Cr, Mn in parts of four medicinal plant species (Cichorium intybus L., Mentha×piperita L., Plantago lanceolata L., Verbascum densiflorum Bertol.) collected from two sites, one few meters away and the other 500 m away from a busy road in Vrnjačka Banja, Serbia. Heavy metals were determined by the atomic absorption method using atomic absorption spectrophotometer. Similar content of tested metals in the soil of the tested locations was recorded, only there was more manganese in the soil closer to the road. The highest concentrations of heavy metals were found in the roots of plants closer to the road. The leaves and stem contain smaller quantities of these metals than root, but there are differences between the studied plant species. In conclusion, all examined metals were present in higher concentrations in plants at the location closest to the road than at the location further away from the road.

Forage Cultivation Under Challenging Environment
(Springer Nature Singapore, 2023) Milenković, Jasmina; Petrović, Mirjana; Andjelković, Snežana; Mitra, Debasis
We already experience the effects of climate change, and future agricultural output will face a number of challenges. High temperatures, scarcity of water, rising pollution, an increase in weeds and pests are just a few of the negative effects it may have. The area and quality of arable land are both decreasing as a result of climate change. It will not be able to generate adequate feed for animals since the negative effects of climate change will reduce the output of fodder plants. Reduced human food production is the eventual result. Every stage of plant growth is impacted by environmental factors (planting, seed germination, early vegetative growth, flowering, maturing and production of seeds, wintering, seed storage, etc.). Some forage crops could be grown and cultivated on less productive soils and extreme environmental conditions, and this could be their advantage. In order to produce and use forage crops more effectively, new species that are more tolerant to stressful situations must be introduced, as well as wild relatives of conventional species and microbiological fertilizers containing rhizobia and other microorganisms. Plant-based proteins have recently gained popularity as a source of protein, and as many forage plants have a high protein content, they can be used in this quickly expanding industry.

(University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Agriculture, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia, 2022-10-06) Babić, Snežana; Sokolović, Dejan; Andjelković, Snežana; Petrović, Mirjana; Jevtić, Goran; Prijović, Mladen; Racić, Nedeljko
Hybrids created by crossing between genera Festuca and Lolium species are Festulolium.Crossing species of these genera aim to combine their positive characteristics, such as Festuca tolerance to abiotic stresses and edaphic and climatic conditions with the high quality and digestibility of Lolium perenne and Lolium multiflorum species. Forage quality of 15 different Lolioid Festulolium cultivars and six cultivars of Festuca and Lolium pure species were investigated in a moderate continental climate in Kruševac, Serbia. Plots in the trial (7,5 m2 ) were completely randomized, each in three replications. In the year of establishment, the plots were cut without weighing and taking samples. In the next two years, two cuts were taken. The first cut was done at the beginning of the heading (the first half of May) and the second in the first half of July. On dry samples, from two cuts, the content of crude protein, crude cellulose, crude fat, ash, ADF, NDF and ADL was determined by standard laboratory methods. Results were presented as two-year average values. The best dry matter quality of Festulolium cultivars was determined for cultivars AberNiche and Felopa. The highest crude protein content in the first cut was determined for AberNiche (187.1 gkg-1 ) and Felopa (169.6 gkg-1). Also, the same cultivars noted the lowest values for ADF (296.7 and 303.5 gkg-1 ) and for AberNiche was determined the lowest ADL contet (35.4 gkg-1 ) in the first cut. These cultivars are in the group of cultivars with the lowest NDF value. Based on the obtained results, it can be concluded that the analyzed Festulolium cultivars have a higher crude protein content compared to the cultivars of Festuca pure species, but lower than Lolium species.

Meadow fescue (Festuca pratensis Huds.) is one of the most important perennial grasses for animal feed production on grasslands. It is characterized by high and stable yield potential and good biomass quality. The aim of this study was to determine the broad and narrow sense heritability and genetic (CVG%) and phenotypic (CVF%) coefficient of variation of the most important traits of two synthetic cultivars (Kruševački 21 and Pradel).
Influence of stimulative feeding measures on spring development of bee societies in DB and LR honeycombs
(University of East Sarajevo, Faculty of Agriculture, Republic of Srpska, Bosnia, 2022-10-06) Jevtić, Goran; Babić, Snežana; Andjelković, Snežana; Zornic, Vladimir; Lazarević, Đorđe; Matovic, Kazimir; Nedić, N.
In order for the bee colonies to make the most of the main pasture, and primarily black locust, it is very important that they are in good condition. It is necessary for the societies to reach their maximum strength at the beginning of the main pasture, and not for it to serve them for further development. The beekeeper himself plays a crucial role in the accelerated spring development of bee colonies. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of different ways of spring feeding on the strength of bee colonies and the food supply in them. The experiment was performed with companies that were in Db (Dadant-Blatt) and Lr (Langstroth-Ruth) hives. Four groups of companies were tested, and there were five companies in each group. The first group was supplemented with sugar syrup, enriched with vitamin-mineral complex - Foprsapine (10 drops per liter of syrup). The second group of societies was fed with honey dissolved in water (ratio of honey and water 1:1). The third group of the companies was fed with sugar dough (energy cake without additives). The fourth group of companies was supplemented with sugar syrup (the ratio of water and sugar was 1:1). At the beginning of the experiment, the societies in Lr hives had an average of 4.5 frames with bees, and 2.5 frames with a brood. In the Db hives, the societies occupied five frames with bees, and had 2.7 frames with a brood. At the end of the experiment Lr societies had 8.7 frames with bees, and 4.5 frames with brood, while Db societies had nine frames with bees, and 4.7 frames with brood. The experiment was performed at the apiary of the Institute for Forage Crops in Kruševac.
