Regulation of rumen development in neonatal ruminants through microbial metagenomes and host transcriptomes

Abstract Background In ruminants, early rumen development is vital for efficient fermentation that converts plant materials to human edible food such as milk and meat. Here, we investigate the extent and functional basis of host-microbial interactions regulating rumen development during the first 6 ...
