Production of methane by methanogenic archaea, or methanogens, in the rumen of
ruminants is a thermodynamic necessity for microbial conversion of feed to volatile fatty …

Methane is the main greenhouse-gas contributor to global warming in the livestock sector; it
is generated by anaerobic fermentation in the different sections of the gut, and the methane …

Short-chain fatty acids (SCFA) are principal nutrient substrates of intestinal epithelial cells
that regulate the epithelial barrier in yaks. Until now, metagenomics sequencing has not …

Methane is a potent greenhouse gas, 25 times more efficient at trapping heat than carbon
dioxide. Ruminant methane emissions contribute almost 30% to anthropogenic sources of …

Methanobrevibacter and Methanosphaera species represent some of the most prevalent
methanogenic archaea in the gastrointestinal tract of animals and humans and play an …

There are few studies on the use of wheat husk for anaerobic digestion until now. In this
study, the BMP (biochemical methane potential) of wheat husk without pretreatment and with …

Methane generated during enteric fermentation in ruminant livestock species is a major
contributor to global anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions. A period of moderate feed …

Methanobrevibacter arboriphilus strain DH1 is an autotrophic methanogen that was isolated
from the wetwood of methane‐emitting trees. This species has been of considerable interest …
