Breed and ruminal fraction effects on bacterial and archaeal community composition in sheep
Abstract While the breed of cattle can impact on the composition and structure of microbial communities in the rumen, breed-specific effects on rumen microbial communities have rarely been examined in sheep. In addition, rumen microbial composition can differ between ruminal fractions, and be associ...
