TL;DR: In this paper, a bottom-up assessment to quantify technical potential of mitigation measures for Chinese agriculture using meta-analysis of data from 240 publications for cropland, 67 publications for grassland and 139 publications for livestock, and provides the reference scenario for the cost analysis of identified mitigation measures.
Journal ArticleDOI
Isolation of natural cultures of anaerobic fungi and indigenously associated methanogens from herbivores and their bioconversion of lignocellulosic materials to methane.
TL;DR: Natural cultures of anaerobic fungi with indigenously associated methanogens with high fiber degradation ability were obtained, and these cultures may have the potential in industrial use in lignocelluloses degradation and methane production.
Journal ArticleDOI
Diversity, abundance and novel 16S rRNA gene sequences of methanogens in rumen liquid, solid and epithelium fractions of Jinnan cattle
TL;DR: There were apparent differences in the methanogenic diversity and abundance in the three different fractions within the rumen of Jinnan cattle, with Methanobrevibacter species predominant in all the three libraries and with epithelium fraction having more unknown species and higher density of methanogens.
Journal ArticleDOI
Molecular diversity analysis of rumen methanogenic Archaea from goat in eastern China by DGGE methods using different primer pairs.
TL;DR: A pair of primers suitable for denaturing gradient gel electrophoretic analysis of ruminal methanogenic Archaea and to detect the archaeal communities in the rumen of goat are screened.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of the gynosaponin on methane production and microbe numbers in a fungus-methanogen co-culture
TL;DR: The data suggest that gynosaponins has the potential for being used as feed additive to modulate the ruminal fermentation, inhibit the methanogen growth and reduce methane production.
