Experimental study and random forest prediction model of microbiome cell surface hydrophobicity [PDF]

, 2016
[Abstract] The cell surface hydrophobicity (CSH) is an assessable physicochemical property used to evaluate the microbial adhesion to the surface of biomaterials, which is an essential step in the microbial biofilm formation and pathogenesis.

- Invited Review - Ruminal ciliates as modulators of the rumen microbiome. [PDF]

Anim Biosci
Ruminal ciliates are a fundamental constituent within the rumen microbiome of ruminant animals. The complex interactions between ruminal ciliates and other microbial guilds within the rumen ecosystems are of paramount importance for facilitating the digestion and fermentation processes of ingested feed components.

Temporal stability of the rumen microbiome and its longitudinal associations with performance traits in beef cattle

Scientific Reports
The rumen microbiome is the focus of a growing body of research, mostly based on investigation of rumen fluid samples collected once from each animal. Exploring the temporal stability of rumen microbiome profiles is imperative, as it enables evaluating ...

Effects of non-pelleted or pelleted low-native grass and pelleted high-native grass diets on meat quality by regulating the rumen microbiota in lambs

Microbiology Spectrum
Diet modulates the rumen microbiota, which in turn can impact the animal performance. The rumen microbiota is increasingly recognized for its crucial role in regulating the growth and meat quality of the host.

Invited review: Interplay of rumen microbiome and the cattle host in modulating feed efficiency and methane emissions

Journal of Dairy Science
: Given that the majority of energy and protein supplied to cattle arises as a result of ruminal fermentation, the rumen microbiome plays a key role in determining host feed efficiency and methane (CH4) emissions. Some reports suggest that a less diverse
