Survival of a Recombinant Rumen Bacterium in the Rumen of Sheep
Survival of the recombinant rumen bacterium Butyrivibrio fibrisolvens NO4, expressing an exogenous xylanase and erythromycin resistance, was assessed in vitro and in vivo. Selective enumeration of the recombinant strain from indigenous rumen bacteria was performed using an erythromycin-supplemented anaerobic medium.

Rumen Microbiome Composition Is Altered in Sheep Divergent in Feed Efficiency
Rumen microbiome composition and functionality is linked to animal feed efficiency, particularly for bovine ruminants. To investigate this in sheep, we compared rumen bacterial and archaeal populations (and predicted metabolic processes) of sheep ...

Presence and species identity of rumen flukes in cattle and sheep in the Netherlands [PDF]
The purpose of the study was to gain knowledge about the prevalence and identity of rumen flukes (RF) in cattle and sheep in the Netherlands. Routine faecal examinations of diagnostic submissions between May 2009 and September 2014 showed a mean annual ...

Rumen Biogeographical Regions and Microbiome Variation
The rumen is a complex organ that is critical for its host to convert low-quality feedstuffs into energy. The conversion of lignocellulosic biomass to volatile fatty acids and other end products is primarily driven by the rumen microbiome and its ...
