Responses in dry matter intakes and plasma phosphorus concentrations in ewes given phosphorus sources of contrasting rumen solubility

Full rumination and feed dry matter (DM) intake require adequate recirculation of soluble phosphorus (P) and nitrogen (as urea) via saliva. Both decrease following periods of inadequate dietary intake, which may be prolonged for P with adults. Earlier studies, using 23 μm mesh nylon bags in cannulat...
