Association of the residual feed intake (RFI) with the rumen microbiota composition and metabolism in Dorper-Hu crossbred lambs [PDF]
BMC MicrobiologyBackground Improving feed efficiency in livestock is crucial for sustainable animal production. Residual feed intake (RFI) is a superior metric that accurately assesses feed efficiency. Animals with a low RFI (LRFI) usually consume less feed than animals

The Cytosolic Oligosaccharide-Degrading Proteome of Butyrivibrio Proteoclasticus
Proteomes, 2015 The growth and productivity of ruminants depends on a complex microbial community found in their fore-stomach (rumen), which is able to breakdown plant polysaccharides and ferment the released sugars. Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus B316T is a Gram-positive

Exploring the causal link between microbiota and tic disorders: a gene sequencing and Mendelian randomization approach [PDF]
PeerJBackground Tic disorders (TD), including Tourette syndrome (TS), are common childhood-onset neurodevelopmental conditions with unclear etiology. Emerging observational data suggest that gut-microbiota (GM) dysbiosis accompanies TD, but causality is ...

The Effect of Forage Level and Oil Supplement on and in Continuous Culture Fermenters [PDF]
Asian-Australasian Journal of Animal Sciences, 2012 The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of forage level and oil supplement on selected strains of rumen bacteria believed to be involved in biohydrogenation (BH). A continuous culture system consisting of four fermenters was used in a 4×4
