Analysis of the rumen microbiome to study the effect of an antimethanogenic treatment applied in early life of kid goats
Sixteen goats giving birth to two kids were used. Eight does were treated (D+) with BCM after giving birth and over 2 months. One kid per doe in both groups was treated with BCM (k+) for 3 months while the other was untreated (k-). Rumen samples were collected from kids at weaning (Wi) and 1 (Wii) and 4 (Wiii) months after and from does at weaning and subjected to 16S pyrosequencing.
