this study was conducted to compare digestibility of wheat straw (ws) by fungi and whole rumen microorganisms (wrm). dry matter (dm), neutral and acid detergent fiber (ndf and adf) digestibility of ws were compared with in vitro digestion (ivd), gas production (gp) and specific rumen anaerobic fungi culture (srafc). dry matter, ndf and adf digestibility of ws by wrm of buffalo (60.80, 49.93 and...

background: based on the information no research has been done on the identification and isolation of anaerobic fungi in the baloochi sheep’s rumen in the dry climate up to now. objectives: the purpose of this research was the separation and study of the appearance morphology of anaerobic fungi in the baloochi sheep’s rumen in sistan region. methods: the semi-defined medium environment was used...

the aim of this study was to investigate the fermentation characteristics and cellulolytic enzymes activities of dromedary camels rumen anaerobic fungi in fed with cultivated and pasture forages. hence, the inoculant of rumen anaerobic fungi was prepared by using specific medium and the gas production, digestibility and enzyme activity of rumen fungi were determined on the basis of a 2 × 2 fact...

Anaerobic fungi were isolated from both the rumen and faeces of nine sheep and a cow. A reliable and simple method for the isolation of anaerobic fungi using 24 h rumen incubated milled straw as the inoculum source was developed. We also evaluate the use of chitin measurements as an assay of rumen fungal biomass. Chitin levels were determined from various sample sources (milled barley straw use...

The metabolomic profile of the anaerobic fungus Piromyces sp. F1, isolated from the rumen of goats, and how this is affected by the presence of naturally associated methanogens, was analyzed by nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. The major metabolites in the fungal monoculture were formate, lactate, ethanol, acetate, succinate, sugars/amino acids and α-ketoglutarate, whereas the co-culture...

Anaerobic fungi inhabit the rumen and actively degrade plant cell walls. Rumen fungi produce high levels of cellulases and hemicellulases and are particularly proficient in producing xylanases. These enzymes are regulated by substrate (especially soluble sugars) available to the organisms. Fungi degrade unlignified (i.e., no histochemical reaction for phenolics) plant walls totally, indicating ...
