Effect of manila palm (Veitchia merrillii Becc.) on rumen fermentation and microbial population in beef heifers by Tanitpan Pongjongmit, Thitima Norrapoke, Kampanat Phesatcha

“…Abstract The aim of the study was to evaluate the influence of manila palm (MP) on rumen fermentation and rumen microbial ecology in beef cattle. Four Brahman crossbred heifers with an initial body weight (BW) of 250 ± 40 kg (1–1.5 years old) were randomly assigned according to a 4 × 4 Latin square design to the following treatments: (1) Control (0% concentrate powder MP), (2) 1% concentrate powder MP, (3) 3% concentrate powder MP, and (4) 5% concentrate powder MP. …”

ITS amplicon sequencing revealed that rare taxa of tea rhizosphere fungi are closely related to the environment and provide feedback on tea tree diseases by Yuanqi Zhao, Weiwei Ran, Wenming Xu, Yuehua Song

“…Emphasis should be placed on the role of rare taxa in pest and disease control within green agriculture while also strengthening systematic development and biogeographical research related to rare taxa in this region.IMPORTANCEIn this study, based on internal transcribed spacer high-throughput sequencing, fungal communities in the rhizosphere soil of tea trees and their interactions with the environment in karst areas were reported, and the symbiotic relationships of different fungal taxa and their feedback to the environment were described in detail by using the knowledge of microbial ecology. On this basis, it was found that tea tree diseases affect the symbiotic relationships of fungal taxa. …”
