Journal ArticleDOI
Bioaugmentation with an anaerobic fungus in a two-stage process for biohydrogen and biogas production using corn silage and cattail
Valentine Nkongndem Nkemka,Brandon H. Gilroyed,Jay Yanke,Robert J. Gruninger,D. D. Vedres,Tim A. McAllister,Xiying Hao +6 more
TL;DR: The potential of bioaugmentation with an anaerobic fungus for improving the digestibility of lignocellulose substrates for biogas and biohydrogen production is demonstrated.
Journal ArticleDOI
Life-cycle assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from dairy production in Eastern Canada: a case study.
E. J. Mc Geough,S. M. Little,H. Henry Janzen,Tim A. McAllister,Sean M. McGinn,Karen A. Beauchemin +5 more
TL;DR: A life-cycle assessment of greenhouse gas emissions from a typical nongrazing dairy production system in Eastern Canada showed that greatest reductions in GHG emissions would be achieved by applying mitigation strategies to reduce enteric CH(4) from the lactating cow, with minimal reductions being achievable in young stock.
Journal ArticleDOI
Microbial strategies in the ruminal digestion of cereal grains
Tim A. McAllister,K.-J. Cheng +1 more
TL;DR: Substances that prevent microbial attachment or promote detachment can be used to regulate the rate of cereal grain digestion in the rumen and include an appreciation for the microbial processes involved in cerealgrain digestion.
Journal ArticleDOI
In vitro effects of individual fatty acids on protozoal numbers and on fermentation products in ruminal fluid from cattle fed a high-concentrate, barley-based diet.
TL;DR: In vitro results suggest that long-chain unsaturated FA in combination with medium-chain saturated acids have the potential to decrease protozoal numbers and ruminal ammonia utilization in cattle fed high-grain diets.
Journal ArticleDOI
Resistome diversity in cattle and the environment decreases during beef production
Noelle R. Noyes,Xiang Yang,Lyndsey M. Linke,Roberta J. Magnuson,Adam Dettenwanger,Shaun R. Cook,Ifigenia Geornaras,Dale R. Woerner,Sheryl P. Gow,Tim A. McAllister,Hua Yang,Jaime Ruiz,Kenneth L. Jones,Christina Boucher,Paul S. Morley,Keith E. Belk +15 more
TL;DR: In this article, the utility and limitations of metagenomics for assessing public health risks regarding antimicrobial resistance, and demonstrates that environmental pathways may represent a greater risk than the food supply.
