Nutritive Value and Nutrient Digestibility of Silages From Different Parts of Fodder Beet With or Without Lactobacillus buchneri Inoculants for Sheep. [PDF]

Vet Med Sci
Whole fodder beet silage (with/without Lactobacillus buchneri) in sheep diets improved dry matter intake and rumen fermentation compared to tops or bulbs alone. Although corn silage showed highest digestibility, whole beet silage—especially with LB—demonstrated promising rumen pH, NH3‐N and acetate:propionate ratio, serving as a viable alternative feed.

Functional Changes of the Community of Microbes With Ni-Dependent Enzyme Genes Accompany Adaptation of the Ruminal Microbiome to Urea-Supplemented Diets

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2020
Urea is an inexpensive non-protein nitrogen source commonly supplemented to the diets of ruminants. It is cleaved to ammonia by bacterial ureases, which require Ni as a catalyst for ureolysis.

Interactions between Entodinium caudatum and an amino acid-fermenting bacterial consortium: fermentation characteristics and protozoal population in vitro

Journal of Animal Science and Technology, 2023
Ruminal protozoa, especially entodiniomorphs, engulf other members of the rumen microbiome in large numbers; and they release oligopeptides and amino acids, which can be fermented to ammonia and volatile fatty acids (VFAs) by amino acid-fermenting ...
