Anaerobic gut fungi are an early branching family of fungi that are commonly found in the
digestive tract of ruminants and monogastric herbivores. It is becoming increasingly clear …

Plant biomass is the largest reservoir of environmentally friendly renewable energy on earth.
However, the complex and recalcitrant structure of these lignocellulose-rich substrates is a …

This book presents a series of chapters on the current knowledge with an emphasis on the
interactions of host animal with the microbes in the rumen. The whole content is divided into …

Despite their role in host nutrition, the anaerobic gut fungal (AGF) component of the
herbivorous gut microbiome remains poorly characterized. Here, to examine global patterns …

The systematic exploration of microbial ecosystem of the rumen was commenced by the
father of rumen microbiology, Robert Hungate, in 1950s. His contributions toward the …

To keep the concept of a safe food supply to the consumers, animal feed industries world
over are showing an increasing interest in the direct-fed microbials (DFM) for improved …

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of bioaugmentation with anaerobic rumen
fungi at varied ratios of inoculums on the performance of anaerobic digesters of microalgae …

Anaerobic fungi (AF) are able to degrade crop substrates with higher efficiency than
commonly used anaerobic bacteria. The aim of this study was to investigate ways of use of …

Anaerobic fungi have long been in the attention for their well-known potential in roughages
degradation and ruminant nutrition. Although numerous studies have given new insights into …

Treatment with rumen fluid improves methane production from non‐degradable
lignocellulosic biomass during subsequent methane fermentation; however, the kinetics of …
