Influence of sire breed on the interplay among rumen microbial populations inhabiting the rumen liquid of the progeny in beef cattle
Download2013
Guan, L. L., Wang, Z., Zhou, M., Goonewardene, L. A., Moore, S. S., Hernandez-Sanabria, E.
This study aimed to evaluate whether the host genetic background impact the ruminal microbial communities of the progeny of sires from three different breeds under different diets. Eighty five bacterial and twenty eight methanogen phylotypes from 49 individuals of diverging sire breed (Angus,...

Insights into temperature adaptation in the Thermotogae gained through transcriptomics and comparative genomics
DownloadFall 2014
Thermophilic microbes are extremophiles that live at high temperatures. In order to survive and maintain function of their biological molecules, they have a suite of characteristics not found in organisms that grow at moderate temperatures (mesophiles) that range from the cellular to the protein...

Interactions Between Host Trees, Bacteria, and Fungi: Impacts on Mountain Pine Beetle (Dendroctonus ponderosae) Reproduction
DownloadFall 2012
Warming winter trends due to climate change have allowed for a range expansion of the mountain pine beetle, and the beetle now threatens Canada’s economically and ecologically important jack pine forests. The beetle’s success in jack pine trees will depend upon successful colonization of the...

Lactobacillus reuteri maintains a functional mucosal barrier during DSS treatment despite mucus layer dysfunction
Download2012
Rang, Sara, Roos, Stefan, Phillipson, Mia, Holm, Lena, Dicksved, Johan, Willing, Ben P., Petersson, Joel, Schreiber, Olof
Treatment with the probiotic bacterium Lactobacillus reuteri has been shown to prevent dextran sodium sulfate (DSS)-induced colitis in rats. This is partly due to reduced P-selectin-dependent leukocyte- and platelet-endothelial cell interactions, however, the mechanism behind this protective...

Long Term Dynamics And Potential Remediation Of Fine Textured Soils And Ground Water Contaminated With Chlorinated Organic Compounds And Salts
DownloadFall 2019
Contamination of land, water, and air is a widespread concern often associated with anthropogenic activities. Remediation of contaminated sites is necessary to minimize negative impacts on human health and the environment and allow for safe, productive use of land. Although contaminated sites...

Hu, Y., Ketabi, A., Buchko, A., Gänzle, Michael G.
Commercial isomalto‐oligosaccharides (IMO) are functional food ingredients. They are composed of α(1→6)‐ and α(1→4)‐linked oligosaccharides. IMO are partially indigestible, and dietary IMO stimulate beneficial members of intestinal microbiota, including lactobacilli and bifidobacteria. However,...

Methane Production and Emission Mitigation in Oil Sands Tailings Concurrent with Hydrocarbon Degradation under Nitrogen Limited Conditions
DownloadFall 2020
Alberta’s oil sands generate large volumes of tailings from bitumen ore processing. These tailings ponds produce biogenic methane, which can be measured across 60-80% of the tailings surface. Based on current surface area data and emissions studies, tailings ponds could account for 8% of Canada’s...
