postinoculation protozoan establishment and association patterns of methanogenic archaea in the ovine rumen.association patterns between archaea and rumen protozoa were evaluated by analyzing archaeal 16s rrna gene clone libraries from ovine rumen inoculated with different protozoa. five protozoan inoculation treatments, fauna free (negative control), holotrich and cellulolytic protozoa, isotricha and dasytricha spp., entodinium spp., and total fauna (type a) were tested. we used denaturing gradient gel electrophoresis, quantitative pcr, and phylogenetic analysis to evaluate the impact of the protozoa ...200717513586
the rumen ciliate fauna of domestic sheep (ovis ammon aires) from the turkish republic of northern cyprus.concentration and composition of ciliate protozoa in the families ophryoscolecidae and isotrichidae were determined in rumen contents of domestic sheep (ovis ammon aries) from cyprus. a total of five genera of ophryoscolecidae were identified, metadinium, enoploplastron, polyplastron, epidinium, and ophrvoscolex, which included six species: metadinium affine, enoploplastron triloricatum, polyplastron multivesiculatum, epidinium ecaudatum, epidinium graini, and ophryoscolex purkynjei. eight separ ...200111456322
ruminal fermentation and duodenal flow following progressive inoculations of fauna-free wethers with major individual species of ciliate protozoa or total fauna.naturally fauna-free (ff) wethers, equipped with ruminal and duodenal cannulas, were used in two groups of eight (group a) and seven (group b) animals in six consecutive experimental periods, each lasting for 28 d. the objective was to measure ruminal fermentation traits, and flows of nonammonia nitrogen (nan), total amino acid (taa), and bacterial nitrogen (bn) from the stomach after inoculation with individual ciliate protozoa species in each period. the wethers in both groups were fed a diet ...200010764084
oxygen consumption by ruminal microorganisms: protozoal and bacterial contributions.the relative contributions to o2 consumption made by the protozoal and bacterial populations present within the rumen were determined by using an open-type oxygen electrode system. measurements indicated that two separate microbial populations contributed approximately equally to ruminal o2 consumption over the o2 concentration range experienced in situ (0.25 to 1.0 microm). the populations were observed to consume o2 under liquid-phase o2 concentrations of up to 7 microm, above which point rapi ...19892513776
