Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
The importance of rumen microbiome on influencing host animal growth and health has continuously been one of the hot topics in animal research. Thorough understanding of the composition and function of rumen microbiome is essential for elaborating their impacts and association with host phenotypes. In addition, the environmental impact of rumen microbiome also attracts attention, and there is an urgent need to limit the environmental footprint from animal industry. In this Special Issue, we intend to cover the latest findings regarding the rumen microbiome and provide novel knowledge of this research area.
We invite original research papers with related topics include
- rumen microbial composition;
- rumen microbial function;
- host-microbial interactions;
- health implications of rumen microbiome;
- environmental impact of rumen microbiome.
