Synergistic Bioconversion of Date Palm Leaves Into Ruminant Feed by a Leopard Moth (Zeuzera pyrina L.) Gut Bacterial Consortium and Nutrient Stimulators

Food Science &Nutrition, Volume 14, Issue 2, February 2026.
Treating date palm leaves with a bacterial consortium, especially when supplemented with glucose and urea, significantly degrades lignin. This process enhances nutritional value by increasing crude protein, digestibility, and metabolizable energy. The method effectively transforms this agricultural by‐product into a viable ruminant feed.

Supplementing goat kids with coconut medium chain fatty acids in early life influences growth and rumen papillae development until 4 months after supplementation but effects on in vitro methane emissions and the rumen microbiota are transient [PDF]

, 2018
The aim of this study was to investigate the methane (CH4) reducing potential of a combination of prenatal and/or postnatal treatment with coconut oil medium chain fatty acids (CO MCFA) in goat kids.

1H‐Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Metabolic Profiling of Pantaneiro and Curraleiro Beef Breeds: Unveiling Adaptation Mechanisms in Brazilian Livestock

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
This study provides the first metabolomic characterization of serum from Pantaneiro and Curraleiro beef cattle, unveiling their unique adaptations to the Pantanal and Cerrado biomes of Brazil. Blood was collected during the summer season to capture metabolic responses to extreme environmental conditions, including high temperatures and varying humidity.

Relationship between rumen microbiota and pregnancy toxemia in ewes

Frontiers in Veterinary Science
IntroductionPregnancy toxemia (PT) is a nutritional metabolic disease of ewes in late pregnancy. This study aimed to reveal the relationship between rumen microbiota and PT.MethodsWe selected 10 healthy ewes (CON) and 10 pregnancy toxemia ewes (PT) at 135 days of gestation according to the blood β-hydroxybutyrate (BHBA), glucose (Glu) concentrations ...

Mycotoxin occurrence in maize silage : a neglected risk for bovine gut health? [PDF]

, 2019
Forages are important components of dairy cattle rations but might harbor a plethora of mycotoxins. Ruminants are considered to be less susceptible to the adverse health effects of mycotoxins, mainly because the ruminal microflora degrades certain ...

Nutrition Management Strategies for the Adaptation of Cull Beef Heifers to Feedlot

New Zealand Journal of Agricultural Research, Volume 69, Issue 1, February 2026.
Providing diets with high roughage in the first days of confinement is the common way of adapting beef cattle to intensive production. However, it is possible to offer the final finishing diet from the first day of adaptation. Our objective was to compare a traditional adaptation protocol, in which animals received a diet with a higher proportion of ...

Rumen microbiota succession throughout the perinatal period and its association with postpartum production traits in dairy cows: A review

Animal Nutrition
The transition period for dairy cows usually refers to the 3 weeks pre-calving to the 3 weeks post-calving. During this period, dairy cows undergo metabolic and physiological adaptations because of their susceptibility to metabolic and infectious ...

Effect of dried leaves of Leucaena leucocephala on rumen fermentation, rumen microbial population, and enteric methane production in crossbred heifers [PDF]

, 2020
The effects of dietary inclusion of dried Leucaena leucocephala leaves (DLL) on nutrient digestibility, fermentation parameters, microbial rumen population, and production of enteric methane (CH4) in crossbred heifers were evaluated.

The High‐Altitude Adaptation Characteristics of Microbiota‐Host Cross‐Talk in Yak Gastrointestinal Track

Advanced Science, Volume 13, Issue 1, 5 January 2026.
In this study, a single‐cell atlas of 117,019 yak gastrointestinal cells across 54 subtypes identified HNF4A and SREBF2 as key transcription factors targeting MYO6 gene. Cross‐species and multi‐omics analyses reveals epithelial cells as key regulators that, through interactions with microbes, particularly Bacillus, facilitate flexible energy supply and
