RAMIRAN 2017: Sustainable Utilisation of Manures and Residue Resources in Agriculture

This eBook presents highlight papers from the 17th International conference of the Recycling of Agricultural, Municipal and Industrial Residues to Agriculture Network (RAMIRAN) that was held in Wexford, Ireland in September 2017. The book contains a broad range of papers around this multidisciplinary theme covering topics including regional and national organic resource use planning, impact of livestock diet on manure composition, fate and utilisation of excreta from grazing livestock, anaerobic digestion, overcoming barriers to resource reuse, hygienic aspects of residue recycling and impacts on soil health. The overarching theme being addressed is the sustainable recycling of organic residues to agriculture, to promote effective nutrient use and minimise environmental impact.

Nutrition Regulation and Stress in Ruminant

Stress is an abnormal response of the organism to external environmental stimuli. In the process of breeding production, animals will show various stress reactions due to changes in their physiological functions, environmental conditions, and management levels. Transportation, high temperature, cold, and other stressors could induce protective reactions in the animal body, showing obvious physiological metabolic disorders and non-specific immune dysfunction, disrupting the physiological processes of nutrient metabolism, digestion and absorption, and immune defense, and ultimately leading to a decrease in production performance and feed conversion rate.

Engineering Rumen Metabolic Pathways: Where We Are, and Where Are We Heading

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 rumen´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...

Advancing Frontiers in Mycology & Mycotechnology

The book provides an introduction to the basics of fungi, discussing various types ranging from edible mushrooms to Neurospora – a model system for genetics and epigenetics. After addressing the classification and biodiversity of fungi, and fungi in different ecological niches, it describes the latest applications of fungi, their role in sustainable environments and in alleviating stress in plants, as well as their role in causing plant and animal diseases. Further chapters explore the advances in fungal interactions research and their implications for various systems, and discuss plant-pathogen interactions. The book also features a section on bioprospecting, and is an extremely interesting and informative read for anybody involved in the field of mycology, microbiology and biotechnology teaching and research.

Microbiota y probióticos en veterinaria

Desde los tiempos de Pasteur, la veterinaria llevó la voz cantante en el estudio de las enfermedades infecciosas incluyendo las zoonosis y las enfermedades de transmisión alimentaria, así como también la modulación empírica del a microbiota animal a través de la dieta y de la transferencia de microorganismos. Sin embargo, no es menos cierto que el reciente estudio científico de la microbiota y el microbioma ha sido particularmente intenso en el ámbito de la medicina humana. Afortunadamente, esta situación está cambiando, ya que, tal y como se refleja en los distintos capítulos de este libro, el conocimiento de la microbiota resulta esencial en cualquier ámbito de la veterinaria,...
