RUMEN MICROBIAL ADAPTATION TO FIBER DIGESTION IN SVALBARD REINDEER

The dominant rumen microorganisms of the high-arctic reindeer from Svalbard (77–81°N) were characterized in summer and winter. Their in vitro fiber digesting ability and VFA production have been examined. It was determined that 74% of the bacteria isolated from animals shot in winter could digest fi...
