Innovation as a Key Driver of Competitiveness [PDF]
This paper examines the link between the issue of competitiveness and innovation and their role in fostering higher living standards. The analysis is carried out at the level of both the firm and the country and then outlines some important policy ...

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

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]
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)

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
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
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
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]
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 ...
