Metagenomic assessment of the functional potential of the rumen microbiome in Holstein dairy cows
Published on 15/12/2015
Milk yields are different between the first and subsequent lactations. This fact led researchers to investigate if there was also a difference in rumen microbiotaGlossaryView allMicrobiota
A microbiota is the whole of the ecosystem (bacteria, yeast, fungi and viruses) living in a specific environment. Intestinal microbiota was previously called “intestinal flora.”. Using meta-genomics, a team from the University of Pennsylvania showed how the dairy cow ruminal microbiomeGlossaryView allMicrobiota
