Journal ArticleDOI
Application of near infrared reflectance spectroscopy to predict meat and meat products quality: A review.
TL;DR: NIR has a considerable potential to predict simultaneously numerous meat quality criteria and to categorize meat into quality classes, considering the literature published mainly in the last decade.
Journal ArticleDOI
Assembly of 913 microbial genomes from metagenomic sequencing of the cow rumen
Robert D. Stewart,Marc D. Auffret,Amanda Warr,Andrew H. Wiser,Maximilian O. Press,Kyle W. Langford,Ivan Liachko,Timothy J. Snelling,Richard J. Dewhurst,Alan W. Walker,Rainer Roehe,Mick Watson +11 more
TL;DR: This dataset substantially improves the coverage of rumen microbial genomes in the public databases and represents a valuable resource for biomass-degrading enzyme discovery and studies of the rumen microbiome.
Journal ArticleDOI
Compendium of 4,941 rumen metagenome-assembled genomes for rumen microbiome biology and enzyme discovery
TL;DR: A genome-resolved metagenomics workflow that enabled assembly of bacterial and archaeal genomes that were at least 80% complete and predicted and annotated a large set of rumen proteins will enable a better understanding of the structure and functions of the rumen microbiota.
Journal ArticleDOI
The rumen microbial metagenome associated with high methane production in cattle
R. John Wallace,John Rooke,Nest McKain,Carol Anne Duthie,J. J. Hyslop,D. W. Ross,Anthony Waterhouse,Mick Watson,Rainer Roehe +8 more
TL;DR: The abundance of archaeal genes in ruminal digesta correlated strongly with differing methane emissions from individual animals, a finding useful for genetic screening purposes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bovine Host Genetic Variation Influences Rumen Microbial Methane Production with Best Selection Criterion for Low Methane Emitting and Efficiently Feed Converting Hosts Based on Metagenomic Gene Abundance
Rainer Roehe,Richard J. Dewhurst,Carol-Anne Duthie,John Rooke,Nest McKain,DW Ross,J. J. Hyslop,Anthony Waterhouse,Tom C. Freeman,Michael Watson,R. John Wallace +10 more
TL;DR: The results strengthen the idea that the host animal controls its own microbiota to a significant extent and open up the implementation of effective breeding strategies using rumen microbial gene abundance as a predictor for difficult-to-measure traits on a large number of hosts.
