Effect of different concentrate diet levels on rumen fluid inoculum used for determination of in vitro rumen fermentation, methane concentration, and methanogen abundance and diversity

This study investigated the effects of different diet concentrate levels in animal diets as a source of rumen fluid inoculum for in vitro ruminal fermentation, CH4 concentration, and methanogen abundance and diversity. Three non-lactating mature cows assigned to a 3 × 3 Latin square design were fed...
