摘要

To identify the key coexisting bacteria and yeast in sugarcane top silage that determine fermentation quality and improve feed safety, we manipulated the epiphytic microbiota of sugarcane tops by selectively inhibiting yeasts (AF) or lactic acid bacteria (AB) before re-ensiling, using untreated (CK) and γ‑ray sterilized silages (NA) as controls. The results shows that high-yield production of lactic acid and acetic acid (p < 0.05), better aerobic stability, and high Lactiplantibacillus abundance (p < 0.05) can be achieved in both AF and CK groups. Particularly, compared to CK and NA groups, the re-establishment of Wickerhamomyces and its coexistence with the Lactiplantibacillus in AF group not only further promotes the accumulation of lactic acid and acetic acid (p < 0.05), but reduces the BugBase-predicted potentially pathogens abundance during ensiling. Notably, Wickerhamomyces is associate with lactic and acetic acid production and BugBase-predicted potentially pathogens abundance reduction in both AF and CK groups. Conversely, sole Wickerhamomyces presence in AB group, leads to ethanol accumulation (p < 0.05), decreased aerobic stability, and increased BugBase-predicted potentially pathogens abundance after aerobic exposure. Moreover, the γ-hemolytic and metabolically versatile strains Wickerhamomyces anomalus G32-15 and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum G35, isolated from the well-preserved sugarcane top silage, increased the yield of lactic acid and acetic acid by co-fermenting orange peel, dragon fruit peel, and mango peel waste, respectively (p < 0.05). This study identified and isolated key coexisting microorganisms associated with improved fermentation quality and safety of sugarcane top silage, and provides an innovative strategy for developing microbial agents to regulate silage quality.
