Diversity and functional analysis of rumen and fecal microbial communities associated with dietary changes in crossbreed dairy cattle.
The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of varying roughage and concentrate proportions, in diet of crossbreed dairy cattle, on the composition and associated functional genes of rumen and fecal microbiota. We also explored fecal samples as a proxy for rumen liquor samples. Six cro...
