The rumen microbiome has a great impact on the productivity and health of the host. Moreover, the rumen microbial composition influences the extent of methane production. Therefore, supplementation wi
This study investigated the long-term effects (13 months) of encapsulated nitrate supplementation (ENS) on enteric methane emissions, rumen fermentation parameters, ruminal bacteria, and diversity of
The indiscriminate use of antibiotics in animal production and human consumption is related to the increase of microorganisms resistant to a wide class of chemical compounds. Thus, alternatives are so
Modulating the assembly of the ruminal microbiota might have practical implications in production. We tested how an early-life dietary intervention in lambs influences the diversity and function of th
