Rumen Protozoa Play a Significant Role in Fungal Predation and Plant Carbohydrate Breakdown

The rumen protozoa, alongside fungi, comprise the eukaryotic portion of the rumen microbiome. Rumen protozoa may account for up to 50% of biomass, yet their role in this ecosystem remains unclear. Early experiments inferred a role in carbohydrate and protein metabolism, but due to their close associ...
