Differential Rumen Microbial Taxa in Charolais Bulls with Divergent Residual Feed Intake

The rumen microbiome impacts beef cattle feed efficiency, a key economic factor in production systems. This study investigated the rumen microbiome of Charolais bulls with divergent residual feed intake-expected progeny difference (RFI-EPD) values to identify microbial taxa associated with feed effi...
