Microbial Engineering to Mitigate Methane Emissions in Ruminant Livestock -- A Review [PDF]
The most recent and promising strategies for mitigating methane emissions in ruminants are reviewed highlighting the potential of reductive acetogenesis as a viable alternative to methanogenesis. The emergence of Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats (CRISPR) technology, and its exceptional precision in genome editing, further ...

Efficacy of mannan-oligosaccharide and live yeast feed additives on performance, rumen morphology, serum biochemical parameters and muscle morphometric characteristics in buffalo calves [PDF]
The objective of the current study was to assess the effect of dietary supplementations of mannan-oligosaccharide, live yeast, and a combination of these two additives on growth performance, histo-morphology of the rumen, and muscle morphometric attributes in buffalo calves.

The Extremes in Intra-Night Blazar Variability: The S4 0954+65 Case [PDF]
We present results of optical observations of the extremely violently variable blazar S4 0954+65 on intra-night time scales. The object showed flux changes of up to 100% within a few hours. Time delays between optical bands, color changes and "rms-flux" relations are investigated and the results are discussed in terms of existing models of blazar ...

The Bulgarian Flat Tax is No Longer What It Was
The idea of a flat tax dates to the middle of the last century. At the end of the 20thand the beginning of the 21stcentury it finds practical realization in many countries of Central and Eastern Europe (including Bulgaria). However, our tax is

Interrogating the viral dark matter of the rumen ecosystem with a global virome database
The diverse rumen virome can modulate the rumen microbiome, but it remains largely unexplored. Here, we mine 975 published rumen metagenomes for viral sequences, create a global rumen virome database (RVD), and analyze the rumen virome for diversity ...

Optical Continuum Variability of the Active Galaxy Mrk 279 - Implications for Different Accretion Regimes [PDF]
We present results from a recent broad-band monitoring in optics of the Seyfert 1 type galaxy Mrk 279. We build and analyse the BVRI light curve covering a period of seven years (1995 - 2002). We also show some evidence for the existence of two different states in brightness and suggest, based on a modelling of the optical continuum, that these states ...

Dynamics of rumen gene expression, microbiome colonization, and their interplay in goats
Background Preweaned rumen development is vital for animal health and efficient fermentation. In this study, we integrated ruminal transcriptomic and metagenomic data to explore the dynamics of rumen functions, microbial colonization, and their ...

A search for chaos in the optical light curve of a blazar: W2R 1926+42 [PDF]
In this work we search for signatures of low-dimensional chaos in the temporal behavior of the Kepler-field blazar W2R 1946+42. We use a publicly available, ~160000 points long and mostly equally spaced, light curve of W2R 1946+42. We apply the correlation integral method to both -- real datasets and phase randomized "surrogates".
