Characteristics of rumen microbiota and Prevotella isolates found in high propionate and low methane-producing dairy cows

Ruminal methane production is the main sink for metabolic hydrogen generated during rumen fermentation, and is a major contributor to greenhouse gas (GHG) emission. Individual ruminants exhibit varying methane production efficiency; therefore, understanding the microbial characteristics of low-metha...
