Metagenomic analysis reveals rumen microbiome enrichment and functional genes adjustment in carbohydrate metabolism induced by different sorting behavior in mid-lactation dairy cows

Abstract Background This study aimed to investigate differences in the structure and function of the rumen microbiome and its associated changes in rumen fermentation patterns and apparent nutrient digestibility in dairy cattle with different sorting behavior. Twenty-four Holstein cows in mid-lactat...
