Effects of cordycepin on rumen microbiome  in vitro rumen fermentation
Samples from the 0.00 and 0.64 g/L cordycepin concentrations were selected for 16s rRNA gene sequencing technology and metablolome analysis. The relative abundance of Succiniclasticum, Prevotella, Rikenellaceae_RC9_gut_group, NK4A214_group, Christensenellaceae_R_7_group, unclassified_F082, Veillonellaceae_UCG_001, Dasytricha, Ophryoscolex, Isotricha, unclassified_Eukaryota, Methanobrevibacter, and Piromyces decreased significantly after adding the maximum dose of cordycepin. In contrast, the relative abundance of Succinivibrio, unclassified_Succinivibrionaceae, Prevotellaceae_UCG_001, unclassified_Lachnospiraceae, Lachnospira, Succinivibrionaceae_UCG_002, Pseudobutyrivibrio, Entodinium, Polyplastron, unclassified_Methanomethylophilaceae, Methanosphaera, and Candidatus_Methanomethylophilus increased significantly.
