This course is aimed at graduate students with an interest in ruminant microbiology/nutrition and molecular biology. The focus of the class will be to develop a better understanding of the relationships between nutrition and rumen microbiology and to identify how the tools of molecular biology can be applied to further characterize the rumen ecosystem. The course combines theoretical concepts and principles with practice. Current research, recent literature, and real-life examples will be used throughout the course to gather a detailed understanding. Prerequisite(s): ANSC 815 or with permission from instructor.Note: Offered in alternate years.
