Specific microbiome-dependent mechanisms underlie the energy harvest efficiency of ruminants [PDF]
The ISME Journal, 2016 Abstract Ruminants have the remarkable ability to convert human-indigestible plant biomass into human-digestible food products, due to a complex microbiome residing in the rumen compartment of their upper digestive tract. Here we report the discovery that rumen microbiome components are tightly linked to cows’ ability to extract energy ...
