Interactions between microbial consortia in biofilms: a paradigm shift in rumen microbial ecology and enteric methane mitigation (2014, background): “Traditionally, studies of rumen microbes were performed using organisms isolated from rumen fluid and cultured in roll tubes (Hungate 1966).”
Invited review: Enteric methane in dairy cattle production: quantifying the opportunities and impact of reducing emissions. (2014, background): “The proportions of VFA affect the amount of CH4 produced, because propionate formation consumes reducing equivalents, whereas acetate and butyrate formation generate H2 for methanogenesis (Hungate, 1966).”
Improving the safety of fresh meat (2005, background): “178 Improving the safety of fresh meat Several studies have indicated that forage-fed animals can have a significantly lower total anaerobic bacterial population than grain-fed animals (DiezGonzalez et al., 1998; Dehority and Orpin; 1988; Hungate, 1966).”
In vitro microbial inoculum: A review of its function and properties (2005, background): “A major portion of digestion in ruminants is accomplished by the anaerobic microflora of the reticulo-rumen (Hungate, 1966).”
Access to mutualistic endosymbiotic microbes: an underappreciated benefit of group living (2008, background): “Research on the mutualistic endosymbionts of mammals has primarily focused on the role of (a) gut microbes in nutrition (Hungate 1966; Savage 1977; Hentges 1983; Tannock 1995; Herceg and Peterson 1997; Hooper et al. 1998) and (b) gut and vaginal microbes in regulating their respective microbial…”
