Description |
A total of 700 spring barley straw samples of genotypic diversity from diverse environments in Morocco were selected and scanned using a FOSS Near Infra-red Spectroscopy (NIRS) System 5000 spectrophotometer in the 1100nm to 2498nm spectral region. Calibration equations for feed quality traits (n=344) were developed using data from NIRS spectra and wet chemistry of representative samples and tested through external validation with the samples (n=137) not included in the calibration sets. A modified partial least-squares (MPLS) regression with independent validation used to confirm the equations and identify possible spectral outliers (GH-value>3, where GH is the Global Mahalanobis distance). Values for coefficient of determination (r2), standard error of prediction SEP(C) and ratio of performance deviation (RPD) were used for validation of the equations. The calibration equations for chemical composition parameters, ash (r2=0.89; RPD=3.02), crude protein (r2 = 0.98; RPD = 6.43), acid detergent fiber (r2 = 0.94; RPD = 4.18), neutral detergent fiber (r2 = 0.88; RPD = 3.89), lignin (r2 = 0.92; RPD = 3.56) and IVOMD (r2=0.64; RPD=1.66) showed good performance and provided reliable estimates of the traits in samples of the validation set. Results demonstrated that feed quality traits of barley straw can be estimated reliably within barley cultivars using NIRS calibration equations integrating broad taxonomic variability and can be used for screening in all cases but IVOMD. The use of the NIRS can facilitate rapid, cost-effective and reliable decision making by researchers and farmers.
