Influence of an anaerobic fungal culture (Orpinomyces sp.) administration on growth rate, ruminal fermentation and nutrient digestion in calves
Open accessAbstract
The study was to see the effect of administration of ruminal fungi on feed intake, growth rate, rumen fermentation and nutrient digestion of calves (Tharparkar×Holstein-Friesian, average age: 10 months, average body weight: 130 kg).The 6 calves in first group were fed a mixture consisted of 50% wheat straw and 50% concentrate (Maize 62%, Groundnut cake 35%, Mineral mix.2% and Common salt 1%) along with 1 kg green oats animal -1 day -1 while second group calves were fed the above-mentioned diet in addition to a dose of 160 ml (10 6 CFU/ml) fungal culture calf -1 week -1 .The average dry matter intake per day was slightly lowered in fungal fed calves yet feed conversion ratio was higher.The average daily weight gain was significantly higher (15.37%) in fungal administered group as compared to control.The nutrient digestibility was increased for crude fibre, NDF and ADF with fungal administration.Digestible energy value of straw-based diet in terms of percent TDN also increased.The pH and NH 3 -N were lower whereas TVFA, total-N, TCA-N and number of zoospores were higher in rumen liquor in fungal administered group.(Asian-Aust.J.

Anaerobic fungi have been shown to improve feed intake, feed digestibility, feed efficiency, daily weight gain and milk production.
“Anaerobic fungi are clearly beneficial, and have been shown to improve feed intake, feed digestibility, feed efficiency, daily weight gain and milk production (Lee et al., 2000; Dey et al., 2004; Paul et al., 2004; Tripathi et al., 2007; Saxena et al., 2010; Puniya et al., 2015).”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
