Multi-Omics Insights into Rumen Microbiota and Metabolite Interactions Regulating Milk Fat Synthesis in Buffaloes.

ABSTRACT: The present study was conducted to analyze the correlation between the milk fat content of Binglangjiang buffaloes and their microbial and host metabolites. The 10 buffaloes with the highest milk fat content (HF, 5.60 ± 0.61%) and the 10 with the lowest milk fat content (LF, 1.49 ± 0.13%) were selected. Their rumen fluid and plasma were collected for rumen microbiota and metabolome analysis. The results showed that the rumen bacteria abundance of Synergistota, Quinella, Selenomonas, and Fretibacterium was significantly higher in the HF buffaloes. The abundance of 14 rumen fungi, including Candida, Talaromyces, Cyrenella, and Stilbella, was significantly higher in the HF buffaloes. The analysis of the metabolites in the rumen and plasm
