Journal ArticleDOI

Expression of a fungal ferulic acid esterase in alfalfa modifies cell wall digestibility.

TL;DR: Modifying cell wall crosslinking has the potential to lower recalcitrance of holocellulose, but also exhibited unintended consequences on alfalfa cell wall digestibility due to elevated lignin content.
Journal ArticleDOI

A dose-response of cinnamaldehyde supplementation on intake, ruminal fermentation, blood metabolites, growth performance, and carcass characteristics of growing lambs☆

TL;DR: In this article, the effect of different doses of cinnamaldehyde on feed intake, gain, feed efficiency, ruminal fermentation parameters, blood metabolites, carcass yield, and meat quality of lambs fed barley-based diets was investigated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Diversity of Phytases in the Rumen

TL;DR: The observed diversity of microbial phytases in the rumen may account for the ability of ruminants to derive a significant proportion of their phosphorus requirements from phytate.
Journal ArticleDOI

Feeding flaxseed in grass hay and barley silage diets to beef cows increases alpha-linolenic acid and its biohydrogenation intermediates in subcutaneous fat.

TL;DR: Forage source altered plasma concentrations and rate of accumulation of ALA biohydrogenation products in subcutaneous fat from beef cows fed flaxseed resulted in a heavier BW, and factors responsible for this response are yet to be defined.
Journal ArticleDOI

Altered microRNA expression in bovine subcutaneous and visceral adipose tissues from cattle under different diet.

TL;DR: It is revealed that the miRNA may differ among adipose depots and level of fat in the diet, suggesting that miRNAs may play a role in the regulation of bovine adipogenesis.
