Citations in the corpus
- Nitrogen metabolism in the rumen. (2005, background): “This is one of the main reasons why defaunation decreases ammonia N concentration in the rumen (Eugene et al., 2004).”
- Interactions between microbial consortia in biofilms: a paradigm shift in rumen microbial ecology and enteric methane mitigation (2014, background): “Ruminants are able to survive and grow without the presence of protozoa in the rumen and, following defaunation, appear to have more dietary and microbial protein available for digestion (for reviews, see Bird et al. 1979; Eugène et al. 2004).”
- Special topics--Mitigation of methane and nitrous oxide emissions from animal operations: I. A review of enteric methane mitigation options. (2013, unknown): “Moreover, all responses were attributed to loss of protozoa without accounting for depressed ruminal fiber digestibility, which promotes acetate and/or CH4 fermentation pathways and typically accompanies defaunation (Eugène et al., 2004).”
- Effect of fibre- and starch-rich finishing diets on methanogenic Archaea diversity and activity in t (2011, background): “The increase in isobutyric and isovaleric acids, which results from deamination of valine and leucine respectively, can also be associated with higher protein degradation by protozoa (Eugène et al., 2004).”
- Meta-analyses of experimental data in animal nutrition. (2008, background): “…nutrition publications, such as the quantification of the physiological response of ruminants to types of dietary starch (Offner and Sauvant, 2004), to the supply of dietary N (Rico-Gomez and Faverdin, 2001), to dietary fats (Schmidely et al., 2008) and rumen defaunation (Eugène et al., 2004).”
- Aspects of rumen microbiology central to mechanistic modelling of methane production in cattle (2008, background): “The molar proportion of propionate often increases and butyrate often decreases upon defaunation (Eugene et al. 2004), suggesting reduced CH4 production.”
