@RumenPredict heifers limited to single animal use on the GFs with gates and head boards put up this morning. Group progressing nicely and will begin CH4 test in 2 weeks at @HerdPlus. Next stop #GGAA2019 conference in Brazil! #microbiome#methane#climatechange
Great PhD thesis opportunity at INRA w/ Evelyne Forano, Milka Popova and Rafael Munoz-Tamayo for a project entitled: System-level understanding of microbe-microbe interactions and fermentation of the rumen microbiota

Excellent 1 year consortia meeting today for the RumenPredict @FACCE_ERAGAS project. Great progress on prediction of ruminant production and methane traits through microbiome based biomarkers.
And on to the 3rd group of cattle to be trained up to have their methane emissions measured. Class is now in session, eat up boys and join the q! @HerdPlus@RumenPredict
A few photos of our speakers from the @MicrobioSoc@teagasc#MUAFM Microbiomes underpinning Agriculture meeting this week. Everyone is very fascinated with the booklets ;-)
This latest comprehensive review of the role of the rumen microbiome in livestock agriculture: past, present and future, was compiled by @RMG_network members and represents an excellent example of a collaboration supported by the @GRA_GHG. https://t.co/zEmZx7PXeO
Butyrivibrio hungatei MB2003 competes effectively for soluble sugars released by Butyrivibrio proteoclasticus B316T from growth on xylan or pectin https://t.co/pdzzaqCP8t
Just one week left to submit your abstract for the @MicrobioSoc focused meeting on Microbiomes underpinning Agriculture in Oct 2018, Cork, Ireland. Hope to see you there! https://t.co/l0ADyOavdC
