- Summary:
- Two-page abstracts of some 400 papers, oral and poster, invited and contributed, are contained here. Among topics of the 21 invited papers are recent developments in meta-genomics applied to the ruminant gastrointestinal ecosystem, adipose tissue and muscle growth interactions in cattle, strategies for optimizing nitrogen use by ruminants, the effects of pollutants on the reproduction and welfare of ruminants, and feeding practices for sustainable ruminant production facing environmental changes and the human food crisis. Full texts of all the invited papers will appear in the spring 2010 issue of the scientific journal Animal. Topics of the many short communications abstracted here include the ruminal metabolism of soluble rapeseed meal protein in vitro, the adaptation of hepatic glucose uptake and metabolism in growing lambs fed diets unbalanced in energy and nitrogen, and a simulated model of dairy heifer growth and time to mating weight when fed nothing but elephant grass. Only the authors are indexed. Distributed in the US by Enfield. Annotation ©2009 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
