SFR affected the morphology and parameters of rumen papillae in pregnant ewes. a Visual inspection of rumen papillae in the CON (a1) and SFR (a2) groups. Hematoxylin and eosin staining sections of rumen papillae in the CON (a3) and SFR (a4) groups. b Papillae size. c Papillae density. d Papillae surface area. e Emptied rumen tissue weight. Data were presented as the minimum to maximum. The difference between two groups was identified by independent sample t test (n = 8 per group), and asterisk indicated the significant difference (P < 0.05)
