Correlation between fermentation products and bacterial community in fresh alfalfa and silages at two growth stages. ETH, ethanol; NH3–N, ammonia nitrogen; PA propionic acid, AA acetic acid, BA butyric acid, WSC water soluble carbohydrate, DM dry matter, LA lactic acid, LA/AA ratio of lactic acid to acetic acid. ALFM1, fresh alfalfa harvested at initial flowering stage; ALFM2, fresh alfalfa harvested at full flowering stage; AL1-3, alfalfa silage at initial flowering stage on day 3; AL2-3, alfalfa silage at full flowering stage on day 3; AL1-60, alfalfa silage at initial flowering stage on day 60; AL2-60, alfalfa silage at full flowering stage on day 60. *, 0.01 < P < 0.05; **, 0.001 < P < 0.01; ***, P < 0.001
