The susceptibility of different forest species to roe deer browsing has been assessed from direct observations of tamed animals. We have tried to rely the different levels of browsing preferences to chemical composition of plants. Total organic matter, sugar, ADF contents seem to have no effect. Crude protein content may explain why roe deer select some kinds of aok. However protein concentrations and browsing preferences in coniferous species aren't linked. Surprisingly phenolic concentrations in our experiment can't explain avoidances of some species. At least the major identified compound is silica. Further analysis must be done to check if some other secondary metabolites (terpenoids) can deter roe deer from browsing. Relationship betwe...
