Host genetics influence the rumen microbiota and heritable rumen microbial features associate with feed efficiency in cattle

BACKGROUND: The symbiotic rumen microbiota is essential for the digestion of plant fibers and contributes to the variation of production and health traits in ruminants. However, to date, the heritability of rumen microbial features and host genetic components associated with the rumen microbiota, as...
