Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: It is concluded that oligonucleotide barcode is a powerful tool for the routine identification of Hypocrea/Trichoderma species and should be useful as a complement to traditional methods.

TL;DR: McAllister et al. as discussed by the authors proposed to redirect rumen fermentation to reduce methanogenesis in order to reduce the methanogenicity of rumen and achieved a promising result.
Abstract: McAllister, T. A., Newbold, C. J. (2008). Redirecting rumen fermentation to reduce methanogenesis. Australian Journal of Experimental Agriculture, 48, (1-2), 7-13.

TL;DR: Genomic comparison with B. thetaiotaomicron in conjunction with cell culture studies show that a cohort of highly successful members of the microbiota has evolved to consume sterically-restricted yeast glycans, an adaptation that may reflect the incorporation of eukaryotic microorganisms into the human diet.
Abstract: Yeasts, which have been a component of the human diet for at least 7,000 years, possess an elaborate cell wall α-mannan The influence of yeast mannan on the ecology of the human microbiota is unknown Here we show that yeast α-mannan is a viable food source for the Gram-negative bacterium Bacteroides thetaiotaomicron, a dominant member of the microbiota Detailed biochemical analysis and targeted gene disruption studies support a model whereby limited cleavage of α-mannan on the surface generates large oligosaccharides that are subsequently depolymerized to mannose by the action of periplasmic enzymes Co-culturing studies showed that metabolism of yeast mannan by B thetaiotaomicron presents a 'selfish' model for the catabolism of this difficult to breakdown polysaccharide Genomic comparison with B thetaiotaomicron in conjunction with cell culture studies show that a cohort of highly successful members of the microbiota has evolved to consume sterically-restricted yeast glycans, an adaptation that may reflect the incorporation of eukaryotic microorganisms into the human diet

TL;DR: This review focuses on research conducted in the past ten years on the non-starch polysaccharides and oligosaccharides found in dry beans, chickpeas, lentils, and dry peas, as well as some non-food applications.

Journal ArticleDOI
TL;DR: Grazing lands are estimated to contain 10-30% of the world's soil organic carbon, and given the size of the C pool in grazing lands the authors need to better understand the current and potential effects of management on soil C storage.
