Five strains of anaerobic fungi isolated from the faeces of wild (hog deer, Cervus porcinus; blackbuck, Antelope cervicapra; spotted deer, Axis axis; nilgai, Baselophus tragocamelus) and rumen liquor of domestic (sheep, Ovies aries) ruminants showing high fibrolytic enzyme producing ability were added to mixed rumen microflora of buffalo to study their effect on the digestibility of lignocellul...

to examine the effects of different sources of rumen-degradable carbohydrates on rumen fermentation, nitrogen metabolism and performance of holstein dairy cows, four lactating holstein cows fitted with rumen cannulae in a 4×4 latin square with four diets and four 28 day periods each, were employed. experimental diets contained different levels of pure sucrose and corn starch in which sucrose wa...

This study aimed to investigate the effect of the ratio of non-fibrous carbohydrates to neutral detergent fibre (NFC/NDF) and undegraded dietary protein (UDP) on rumen fermentation and nitrogen metabolism in lambs. Four Dorper×thin-tailed Han crossbred lambs, averaging 62.3±1.9 kg of body weight and 10 mo of age, were randomly assigned to four dietary treatments of combinations of two levels of...

Story in Brief Corn steep liquor (CSL) and fermented ammoniated condensed whey (FACW) were compared to cottonseed meal (CS1\I) as protein sources f())' wintering 6 I lactating first-calf Hereford heifers and 32 yearling HerefOl'd heifers on nati\'e range. Cattle were allotted by weight and individually fed 6 days per week fill' 12 weeks one of four protein treatments: negative control (I\C). po...

This experiment was designed to investigate the effect of lerak extract on the dynamic of rumen microbes in the in vitro fermentation of diet with different ratios of forage and concentrate. In vitro fermentation was conducted according to the method of Tilley and Terry (1963). The design of experiment was a factorial block design with 2 factors. The first factor was the ratio of forage and con...

This study was designed to determine the effect of physical form and urea treatment of rice straw on rumen fermentation, microbial protein synthesis and nutrient digestibility. Four rumen-fistulated dairy steers were randomly assigned according to a 2 (2 factorial arrangement in a 4 (4 Latin square design to receive four dietary treatments. Factor A was roughage source: untreated rice straw (RS...

To utilize the plant nutrients efficiently, rumen microbes play a great role in livestock, acting as source of energy. Like other ruminants, yak harbours different microorganisms that are responsible for bioconversion into energy animals. The samples liquor were collected from (Bos grunniens) rumen. specific media was made to culture and isolated pure with serial dilution. colony identified hel...
