Inoculation with homofermentative lactic acid bacteria (LAB) effectively enhances the silage quality of forages. Moreover, feeding such LAB-inoculated silage modulates rumen microbiota composition and metabolites, thereby improving ruminant production performance. Nevertheless, the specific mecha...
This dataset comprises untargeted LC-MS metabolomics profiles of rumen samples from 8 sheep under moderate grazing with supplementary feeding and 8 sheep under intensive grazing with supplementary feeding. Samples were analyzed using Thermo Fisher Scientific mass spectrometers in positive/negativ...
While rapid progress has been made to characterize the bacterial and archaeal populations of the rumen microbiome, insight into how they interact with keystone protozoal species remains elusive. Here, we reveal two distinct rumen community types (RCT-A and RCT-B) that are not strongly associated ...
Background: The regulatory effects of glucose absorption at different sites (rumen vs. small intestine) on lipid metabolism exhibit significant variation in beef nutrition. This study aimed to investigate the regulatory pathways of rumen-protected or unprotected glucose on lipid metabolism throug...
Antibiotics were once used in animal production to improve productivity and resistance to pathogenic microbiota. However, due to its negative effects, the search for a new class of substances that can replace its efficacy has become one of the urgent problems to be solved. Plant essential oils (E...
From an animal production and health perspective, our understanding of the metabolites in ruminant biofluids, particularly rumen fluid across different host species is poorly understood. Metabolomics is a powerful and sensitive approach for investigating low molecular weight metabolite profiles p...
