Ten Czech Pied cows in the mid-lactation stage were fed diets based on grass silage and maize silage. The composition of milk fats differed. The proportions of even-chain saturated fatty acids (SFAs) up to C14:0 were insignificant and the content of C16:0 was significantly higher when feeding a diet based on maize silage while the proportions of the individual polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFAs) were significantly (except for C18:2) higher when feeding a diet based on grass silage. The total SFA proportions were 67.60 and 62.93% (P less than 0.05) of maize and grass silages, respectively, while an opposite relation was observed for the sum of PUFAs (3.56 and 4.74%; P less than 0.001). Feeding of grass silage resulted in a significantly lower proportion of hypercholesterolaemic fatty acids C12:0, C14:0 and C16:0 (49.38 and 44.98%, respectively) and in significantly lower values of the atherogenic index (3.03 and 2.44).
