Microbial Rumen Fermentation

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1981
With the ruminant animal, we have essentially two ecosystems, namely, the microbial ecosystem within the rumen and the animal's external environment. In dealing with the microbial ecosystem, we have made significant strides in the last few decades toward accomplishing the overall goal of ecology, which is to understand the relationships of organisms to

Effect of the macroalgae Asparagopsis taxiformis on methane production and rumen microbiome assemblage

open access: yesbioRxiv, 2018
BackgroundRecent studies using batch-fermentation suggest that the red macroalgae Asparagopsis taxiformis has the potential to reduce methane (CH4) production from beef cattle by up to ~ 99% when added to Rhodes grass hay; a common feed in the Australian

Feed intake pattern, behaviour, rumen characteristics and blood metabolites of finishing beef steers offered total mixed rations constituted at feeding or ensiling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
peer-reviewedTwo experiments were undertaken. In Experiment 1, behaviour, intake pattern and blood metabolites, were recorded for steers offered total mixed rations (TMR) based on grass silage and concentrates, and constituted either at ensiling (E-TMR)

Assessment of Rumen Microbiota from a Large Dairy Cattle Cohort Reveals the Pan and Core Bacteriomes Contributing to Varied Phenotypes

open access: yesApplied and Environmental Microbiology, 2018
This study revealed the rumen bacteriome from a large dairy cattle cohort (n = 334) raised under the same management and showed the linkages among the rumen core and pan bacteriomes, rumen short-chain fatty acids, and milk production phenotypes.

Nitrogen Metabolism in the Rumen

open access: yesJournal of Dairy Science, 1984
Nitrogen metabolism is reviewed with emphasis on methods for quantitating various nitrogen-transactions in the rumen of animals on a variety of diets. Ammonia kinetics, microbial cell synthesis, the inputs of endogenous nitrogen, degradation of dietary protein, and availability to the animal of dietary bypass protein are discussed.

Generalization of the formula of Faa di Bruno for a composite function with a vector argument

open access: yesInternational Journal of Mathematics and Mathematical Sciences, 2000
The paper presents a new explicit formula for the nth total derivative of a composite function with a vector argument. The well-known formula of Faa di Bruno gives an expression for the nth derivative of a composite function with a scalar argument.

CowPI: A Rumen Microbiome Focussed Version of the PICRUSt Functional Inference Software

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2018
Metataxonomic 16S rDNA based studies are a commonplace and useful tool in the research of the microbiome, but they do not provide the full investigative power of metagenomics and metatranscriptomics for revealing the functional potential of microbial ...

Bordered Floer homology for sutured manifolds [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2009
We define a sutured cobordism category of surfaces with boundary and 3-manifolds with corners. In this category a sutured 3-manifold is regarded as a morphism from the empty surface to itself. In the process we define a new class of geometric objects, called bordered sutured manifolds, that generalize both sutured 3-manifolds and bordered 3-manifolds ...
