Ruminants were domesticated in the Middle East about 10,000 years ago and have since become an inseparable part of human diet, society, and culture. Ruminants can transform inedible plant fiber and non-protein nitrogen into meat, milk, wool and traction, thus allowing human utilization of non-tillable land and industrial by-products. The nutritional flexibility of ruminants is conferred by the rumenĀ“s complex microbial community. Driven by rising income and population growth in emergent economies, the global demand for livestock products, including milk and meat from ruminants, has been increasingly growing, and is predicted to continue growing in the next few decades. The increase in produ...
With the dramatically rising sophistication of biological methods and products and the increasing use of recombinant DNA technology, now is an apt time to review the status of biotechnology in animal feeding. This book gives succinct yet comprehensive coverage of products of biotechnology and allied sciences used in animal feed and feeding industries. Particular emphasis is placed on: - Conservation and upgrading of feeds and feed components - Increasing the protein value of feeds - Antimicrobials - Microbial feed additives - Increasing the energy value of feeds. Moreover, increasing environmental concerns are reflected in chapters describing dietary products which may help to reduce environmental hazards from animal feeding enterprises. A discussion of social and legislative aspects relating to biotechnology and animal feeding rounds off this useful compilation of timely articles.
The present book Microbes in Indian Buffalo Rumen: A Metagenomics Approach will be useful to researchers, who are engaged in research on DNA sequencing of Microbes with diet composition, gut flora, ruminal microbes, and microbial community dynamics of cattle. The book covers not only the rumen metagenomics, but also highlights the salient findings about specifically exploring the microbial community dynamics from Mehsani and Kankrej breeds of buffaloes at different diet treatments, comparing the rumen microbiota at each diet treatments, and identifying the methanogens and their enzymes responsible for methanogenesis at each dietary treatment. The rumen microbiota studied under the different ...
