Spearman’s correlation heatmap of A chemical composition and epiphytic microbiota (top 10 genera) in fresh napiergrass and B fermentation parameters and bacterial community (top 10 genera) in fermented napiergrass. Orange squares represent positive correlation (0 < r < 1), whereas blue squares represent negative correlation (−1 < r < 0). *, significant at p < 0.05; **, significant at 0.001 < p ≤ 0.01; ***, significant at p ≤ 0.001.
