Effect of Post-extraction Algal Residue Supplementation on the Therumen Microbiome of Steers Consuming Low-quality Forage

The rumen microbiome is a dynamic environment consisting of bacteria, protist, and fungi responsible for fiber degradation. Advances in molecular techniques have enabled description of bacterial microbiome via pyrosequencing. Cattle consuming low-quality forage are often supplemented with protein...
