Background The symbiotic rumen microbiota is essential for the digestion of plant fibers and
contributes to the variation of production and health traits in ruminants. However, to date, the …

Linkage of rumen microbial structure to host phenotypical traits may enhance the
understanding of host–microbial interactions in livestock species. This study used culture-independent …

Exploring compositional and functional characteristics of the rumen microbiome can improve
the understanding of its role in rumen function and cattle feed efficiency. In this study, we …

Background Recently, we reported that some dairy cows could produce high amounts of milk
with high amounts of protein (defined as milk protein yield [MPY]) when a population was …

Background Gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiomes in ruminants play major roles in host
health and thus animal production. However, we lack an integrated understanding of microbial …
