Two lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains with different ferulic acid esterase (FAE) activities were isolated: Lactobacillus farciminis (LF18) and Lactobacillus plantarum (LP23). The effects of these strains on the fermentation quality, in vitro digestibility and phenolic acid extraction yields of sorghum (Sorghum bicolor L.) silage were studied at 20, 30 and 40 °:C. Sorghum was ensiled with no additive (control), LF18 or LP23 for 45 days. At 40 °:C, the lactic acid content decreased, whereas the ammonia nitrogen (NH3-N) content significantly increased (p <: 0.05). At all three temperatures, the inoculants significantly improved the lactic acid contents and reduced the NH3-N contents (p <: 0.05). Neither LP23 nor LF18 significantly improved the digestibility of sorghum silages (p >: 0.05). The LP23 group exhibited higher phenolic acid extraction yields at 30 °:C (p <: 0.05), and the corresponding yields of the LF18 and control groups were improved at 40 °:C (p <: 0.05). FAE-producing LABs might partially ameliorate the negative effects of high temperature and improve the fermentation quality of sorghum silage. The screened FAE-producing LABs could be candidate strains for preserving sorghum silage at high temperature, and some further insights into the relationship between FAE-producing LABs and ensiling temperatures were obtained.
