Applying PICRUSt and 16S rRNA functional characterisation to predicting co-digestion strategies of various animal manures for biogas production
An estimated 25 million tons of animal manure is produced globally every year, causing
considerable impact to the environment. These impacts can be managed through the use of …

Characterization of rumen, fecal, and milk microbiota in lactating dairy cows
Targeting the gastrointestinal microbiome for improvement of feed efficiency and reduction
of production costs is a potential promising strategy. However little progress has been made …

The nasopharyngeal, ruminal, and vaginal microbiota and the core taxa shared across these microbiomes in virgin yearling heifers exposed to divergent in utero …
In the present study, we evaluated whether the nasopharyngeal, ruminal, and vaginal
microbiota would diverge (1) in virgin yearling beef heifers (9 months old) due to the …

Evaluation of the fecal bacterial communities of Angus steers with divergent feed efficiencies across the lifespan from weaning to slaughter
Numerous studies have examined the link between the presence of specific gastrointestinal
bacteria and the feed efficiency of cattle. However, cattle undergo dietary changes during …

Effects of Eimeria tenella Infection on Key Parameters for Feed Efficiency in Broiler Chickens
Simple Summary Coccidiosis, which can be induced by Eimeria spp., causes tremendous
economic losses in the poultry production. Eimeria tenella (E. tenella) is one of the poultry …

The impact of feed efficiency selection on the ruminal, cecal, and fecal microbiomes of Angus steers from a commercial feedlot
Feed is the greatest cost of animal production, so reducing it is critical to increase producer
profits. In ruminants, the microbial population within the gastrointestinal tract (GIT) is critical …
