This book offers an introduction to the microbes and microbial activity of the rumen. It offers an in-depth description of rumen bacteria, protozoa and fungi. Information is given on microbial concentrations and those factors which control or influence their numbers in the rumen. Both the synergism and negative effects resulting from microbial interactions are discussed.
Burk Dehority's career has been primarily in research and graduate education and he currently holds the position of Professor at the Ohio Agricultural Research and Development Center, a unit of The Ohio State University, Ohio, USA.
