Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans adhesion to epithelial cells
(Comité editorial Anaerobe Journal, 2019-01-05)
The ruminal bacteria Pseudobutyrivibrio xylanivorans strain 2 (P. xylanivorans 2), that mediates the digestion of plant fiber, is considered an attractive candidate for probiotics. Adherence to the epithelium of the digestive ...
Seasonal changes in feed intake, diet digestibility and diet composition by lactating and non-lactating goats browsing in a semi-arid rangeland of Argentina
(Comité editor Grass and Forage Science, 2018-10-01)
We determined the seasonal nutrient and secondary compound intake, in vivo diet digestibility (DD) and diet species composition of goats in different physiological states in a desert rangeland of Argentina. During the wet ...
Diet mixing and condensed tannins help explain foraging preferences by Creole goats facing the physical and chemical diversity of native woody plants in the central Monte desert (Argentina).
(Comité editorial Animal Feed Science and Technology, 2016-02-26)
The aim of this study was to understand the benefit of diet mixing for Creole goats grazingnative forage species in the central Monte desert of Argentina and the drivers of preferencein the mixed diet. To achieve this goal, ...
Analysis of the rumen bacterial diversity of goats during shift from forage to concentrate diet.
(Comité editor Journal Anaerobe, 2016-07-12)
High-grain feeding used in the animal production is known to affect the host rumen bacterial community, but our understanding of consequent changes in goats is limited. This study was therefore aimed to evaluate bacterial ...
Ruminal bacterial community changes during adaptation of goats to fresh alfalfa forage.
(Editorial Livestock Science, 2016-08-02)
Using culture-independent molecular approaches, we studied the bacterial population changes in the rumen of goats abruptly converted from alfalfa hay to fresh alfalfa diet. Administration of fresh forage with significantly ...
