Whole rumen metagenome sequencing allows classifying and predicting feed efficiency and intake levels in cattle

The current research was carried out to determine the associations between the rumen microbiota and traits related with feed efficiency in a Holstein cattle population (n = 30) using whole metagenome sequencing. Improving feed efficiency (FE) is important for a more sustainable livestock production....
