## Abstract The action of sodium hydroxide on the rate and extent of loss of wall polysaccharides from wheat and barley straws incubated in the rumen of the sheep was studied using a nylon bag technique. Cellulose loss reached a maximum in straws treated with 10 g NaOH 100 g^โ1^ straw. Further incr
Disappearance of cell wall components of untreated straw and straw treated with the ligninolytic white-rot fungi Phanerochaete chrysosporium, Dichomitus squalens and Cyathus stercoreics were determined during the course of rumen digestion of samples in nylon bags. The first fungus degraded hemicellu
