Methane emission by ruminants has considerable contribution to global warming. Individual animals have been argued to harbor their own specific microbial communities responsible for methane production. The objective of this study is to identify the genomic regions associated with community composition of rumen methanogenic archaea in Iranian Holstein cattle. The genomic DNA from 300 Iranian […]
