ABSTRACT

  1. A water-soluble substance or substances in the leaves of sericea lespedeza, which inhibits the enzymatic hydrolysis of soluble cellulose, is reported. The reduction in cellulase activity obtained was proportional to the concentration of the inhibitor present.
  2. Extracts of fescue, ryegrass, alfalfa, and soybean forages were not inhibitory to rumen cellulase.
