Comparison of the ruminal microbiome responses of temperate and tropically adapted beef steers to dietary supplementation with monensin [PDF]

Frontiers in Animal Science
The interactive responses of cattle genetics and the rumen microbiome (G×M) govern variations in the feed efficiency and methane emissions, which subsequently impact cattle productivity and their environmental footprint.

In vitro ruminal fermentation and cow-to-mouse fecal transplantations verify the inter-relationship of microbiome and metabolome biomarkers: potential to promote health in dairy cows [PDF]

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2023
IntroductionThere are differences in the gut microbiome and metabolome when the host undergoes different physical or pathological conditions. However, the inter-relationship of microbiome and metabolome biomarkers to potentially promote the health of ...

Rumen microbiome biogeography and ventral epithelial architecture in three ruminant species

Cell Reports
Summary: Ruminants thrive in diverse ecosystems by leveraging their rumen microbiome to ferment fibrous plants. However, the spatial biogeography of rumen microbiome and the genetic diversity of the ventral rumen epithelium remain unknown.

Characterization of the Ruminal Microbiome of Water Buffaloes (Bubalus bubalis) Kept in Different Ecosystems in the Eastern Amazon. [PDF]

Animals (Basel), 2023
Increasing the efficiency of rumen fermentation is one of the main ways to maximize the production of ruminants. It is therefore important to understand the ruminal microbiome, as well as environmental influences on that community.

The influence of prenatal nutrition on ruminal microbiome of beef cattle. [PDF]

Front Genet
Introduction Maternal nutrition is recognized for inducing long-lasting effects on offspring performance during postnatal life. However, little is known about its potential role in modulating the ruminal microbiota during fetal development, as rumen colonization has traditionally been assumed to occur only at ...

Altered ruminal microbiome tryptophan metabolism and their derived 3-indoleacetic acid inhibit ruminal inflammation in subacute ruminal acidosis goats. [PDF]

Microbiome
Abstract Background Subacute ruminal acidosis (SARA) is a digestive disorder that often severely jeopardizes the health and lactation performance of ruminants fed a high-energy diet. Different dairy ruminants exhibit varying degrees of inflammation accompanied by variations in the rumen ...

Exploration of mobile genetic elements in the ruminal microbiome of Nellore cattle. [PDF]

Sci Rep
AbstractMetagenomics has made it feasible to elucidate the intricacies of the ruminal microbiome and its role in the differentiation of animal production phenotypes of significance. The search for mobile genetic elements (MGEs) has taken on great importance, as they play a critical role in the transfer of genetic material between organisms. Furthermore,

Impact of selected environmental factors on microbiome of the digestive tract of ruminants [PDF]

BMC Veterinary Research, 2021
AbstractRuminants are an important part of world animal production. The main factors affecting their production rates are age, diet, physiological condition and welfare. Disorders related to low level of welfare can significantly affect the microbiological composition of the digestive system, which is essential to maintain high production rates.
