  1. a* is the soluble nutrient fraction rapidly washed out of the bags and assumed to be completely degradable, b* is the proportion of insoluble nutrients potentially degradable by microorganisms, c* is the degradation rate of fraction b* per hour, a + b* is potential degradability. ED = effective degradability.
  2. In the table, when the P-value is less than 0.05, it indicates a significant difference, annotated with different letter labels.
