瘤胃甲烷调控方法评述   总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2  
反刍动物释放的甲烷不仅消耗6%~10%的能量摄入,而且是重要的温室效应气体。过去20多年以来,研究人员围绕瘤胃甲烷生成及其调控展开了大量的研究,目前采取的主要措施包括:(1)提供电子释放新途径;(2)利用疫苗、生物控制剂(噬菌体和细菌素)以及化学抑制剂等抑制产甲烷菌,以及(3)去原虫、添加植物提取物或有机酸等促进产乙酸菌增加,降低产甲烷菌可利用的氢。瘤胃生态系统是一个复杂的生态系统,能够将复杂碳水化合物转化成为挥发性脂肪酸,这个过程部分依赖于甲烷的生成和氢的消耗。因此,虽然各种调控措施能够在短期内抑制甲烷生成,但瘤胃微生态系统能够恢复原有的甲烷生成水平,这表明我们对瘤胃中氢代谢仍然认识不足。进一步提高对瘤胃内氢和甲烷生成的微生物生化机制的了解,有助于我们找到有效的甲烷调控措施。  相似文献

反刍动物瘤胃中产甲烷菌可以利用氢气、甲醇和甲胺等物质生成甲烷,不仅造成饲料能量的浪费,同时甲烷作为一种主要的温室气体也对环境构成了严重的威胁。因此,众多学者都在寻找降低反刍动物甲烷排放的方法,其中有学者提出在饲粮中添加适量可直接饲喂的微生物(Direct-fed microbes,DFM)是一种很有潜力的方法,但目前还处于初步探索阶段。本文综述了几种重要的DFM,并介绍了其作用机制及应用效果。  相似文献

随着测序技术和体外培养技术的进步,越来越多的未知甲烷菌被发现。近年来,第七个甲烷菌目"Methanomassiliicoccales"(简称Mmc)被发现并建立。这一目甲烷菌在进化关系上与热原体古菌相近,但又存在较远距离,独立成簇。Mmc分布广泛,遍布哺乳动物和昆虫的消化道以及稻田、湿地等环境,但不同来源菌株表现出生境偏好性。Mmc缺少将CO2还原为甲基辅酶M的完整代谢途径,导致它们严格利用氢气还原甲基底物生成甲烷。全面深入地了解Mmc在反刍动物瘤胃中发挥的功能,将有助于新型高效反刍动物甲烷减排策略的提出。因此,本文主要综述了Mmc菌株的分离培养、生理生化和基因组特性及其在瘤胃甲烷生成中的作用。  相似文献

瘤胃是反刍动物营养物质消化吸收和代谢的重要器官,其发育状态直接影响反刍动物生产性能和健康。初生犊牛和羔羊,瘤胃功能尚未发育完全,不能够充分消化和吸收固体饲料。因此,在幼龄时期,通过营养调控手段促进反刍动物的瘤胃发育对维持动物健康及提高生产性能具有重要意义。丁酸是瘤胃微生物降解植物性饲料的主要产物,也是瘤胃上皮及宿主的重要能量来源。丁酸调控幼龄反刍动物瘤胃上皮发育是一个历久弥新的话题。主要介绍了幼龄反刍动物瘤胃上皮形态及功能的发育以及丁酸调控幼龄反刍动物瘤胃上皮发育的研究进展。  相似文献

【目的】通过体外静态模拟瘤胃发酵法研究溶菌酶对瘤胃发酵、甲烷生成及微生物菌群结构的影响。【方法】采用单因素多水平试验设计,溶菌酶添加水平分别为0(L-0,对照组)、0.1 mg/100 m L(L-0.1)、1 mg/100 m L(L-1)、10 mg/100 m L(L-10)和100 mg/100 m L(L-100),定时测定产气量和甲烷产量,培养24 h后,发酵液用于发酵参数和微生物菌群数量的q PCR测定,其中L-0、L-1和L-100三个组发酵液同时进行16S r RNA基因Illumina高通量测序。【结果】与对照组相比,低剂量溶菌酶添加(L-0.1组)不影响甲烷产量、氨氮浓度、干物质消失率、有机物消失率和总挥发性脂肪酸等瘤胃发酵参数(P0.05);随着剂量提高,L-1处理组甲烷产量、氨氮浓度显著降低(P0.05),丙酸浓度显著增加(P0.05),并且干物质消失率、有机物消失率和总挥发性脂肪酸不受影响(P0.05);而较高剂量组(L-10和L-100组)虽然甲烷产量显著降低,丙酸浓度显著增加(P0.05),但干物质消失率和有机物消失率也显著降低(P0.05)。q PCR结果显示高剂量组(L-100组)总菌、原虫、甲烷菌数量与对照组相比显著降低(P0.05),而L-0.1、L-1和L-10组总菌、真菌和原虫数量与对照组相比均无显著变化(P0.05)。高通量测序主成分分析(PCA)显示对照组与溶菌酶添加组间瘤胃细菌组成的明显区分,说明添加溶菌酶显著改变了瘤胃细菌菌群结构。溶菌酶通过增加月形单胞菌和琥珀酸弧菌等丙酸生成菌的相对丰度,使更多的氢被用于生成丙酸,导致甲烷产量降低;溶菌酶可抑制普雷沃氏菌和拟杆菌属等蛋白降解菌的生长,进而减少蛋白质过度降解,降低氨氮浓度。【结论】添加适宜浓度(1 mg/100 m L)的溶菌酶可通过调控瘤胃微生态改变瘤胃发酵模式,降低瘤胃甲烷和氨的生成,短期内并不影响饲料消化。  相似文献

陆地生态系统存在许多常年性或季节性缺氧环境,如:湿地、水稻土、湖泊沉积物、动物瘤胃、垃圾填埋场和厌氧生物反应器等。每年有大量有机物质进入这些环境,在缺氧条件下发生厌氧分解。甲烷是有机质厌氧分解的最终产物。产生的甲烷气体可通过缺氧-有氧界面释放到大气,产生温室效应,是重要的温室气体。产甲烷过程是缺氧环境中有机质分解的核心环节,而甲烷氧化是缺氧-有氧界面的重要微生物过程。甲烷的产生和氧化过程共同调控大气甲烷浓度,是全球碳循环不可分割的组成部分。对陆地生态系统甲烷产生和氧化过程的微生物机理研究进展进行了概要回顾和综述。主要内容包括:新型产甲烷古菌即第六和第七目产甲烷古菌和嗜冷嗜酸产甲烷古菌的发现;短链脂肪酸中间产物互营氧化过程与直接种间电子传递机制;新型甲烷氧化菌包括厌氧甲烷氧化菌和疣微菌属好氧甲烷氧化菌的发现;甲烷氧化菌生理生态与环境适应的新机制。这些研究进展显著拓展了人们对陆地生态系统甲烷产生和氧化机理的认识和理解。随着新一代土壤微生物研究技术的发展与应用,甲烷产生和氧化微生物研究领域将面临更多机遇和挑战,对未来发展趋势做了展望。  相似文献

土壤大气甲烷氧化菌研究进展   总被引:7,自引:0,他引:7  
土壤微生物催化是大气中痕量甲烷(约1.8ppmv)氧化的唯一生物途径。目前的研究表明好氧土壤中存在专性和选择性大气甲烷氧化菌2种类型:前者(USCα和USCγ)广泛分布于各种好氧旱地土壤,其甲烷氧化酶对低浓度甲烷亲和力极高,属真正的寡营养型,但至今尚未获得该种类的纯培养菌株。后者属于传统甲烷氧化菌Methylocystis/Methylosinus属,广泛分布于各种周期性排放高浓度甲烷的土壤环境中。该属大部分菌株含有亲和力不同的2套甲烷单加氧酶系统,其中的高亲和力甲烷单加氧酶使这些菌株可以在相当长的时间内(3个月)保持大气浓度甲烷氧化活性,但其生长和繁殖还需依赖于土壤内部阶段性产生的高浓度甲烷。本文详细阐述了2类大气甲烷氧化菌的发现历程及其可能的生存策略,最后系统梳理了几种关键的环境因子(土壤温度及湿度、土壤pH、植被、土地利用及氮输入)对大气甲烷氧化菌群落结构和甲烷氧化活性的影响,提出并展望了土壤大气甲烷氧化菌研究的重要方向。  相似文献

Recently, greenhouse gas emissions have been of great concern globally. Ruminant livestock due to production of methane during normal fermentation in the rumen contributes substantially to the greenhouse effects. During the recent decade, a paradigm shift has been initiated whether plant secondary metabolites (PSM) could be exploited as natural safe feed additives alternative to chemical additives to inhibit enteric methanogenesis. More than 200,000 defined structures of PSM have been known. Some plants or their extracts with high concentrations of bioactive PSM such as saponins, tannins, essential oils, organosulphur compounds, flavonoids and many other metabolites appear to have potential to inhibit methane production in the rumen. The possible mechanisms and effects of many PSM on rumen methanogenesis are not clearly understood. Saponins may decrease methanogenesis through the inhibition of rumen protozoa and in turn may suppress the numbers and activity of methanogens. Although the direct effect of saponins on methanogens has not been demonstrated, saponins might inhibit methanogens at high doses. Tannins may inhibit the methanogenesis directly and also via inhibition of protozoal growth. Essential oils, organosulphur compounds and flavonoids appear to have direct effects against methanogens, and a reduction of protozoa associated methanogenesis probably plays a minor role for these metabolites. The chemical structure and molecular weight of the PSM and chemical composition of diets dependent upon the different feeding regimes may influence the effects of PSM on methane production. Although PSM may negatively affect nutrient utilization, there is evidence that methanogenesis could be suppressed without adversely affecting rumen fermentation, which could be exploited to mitigate methane emission in ruminants.  相似文献

The rumen is a highly diverse ecosystem comprising different microbial groups including methanogens that consume a considerable part of the ruminant’s nutrient energy in methane production. The consequences of methanogenesis in the rumen may result in the low productivity and possibly will have a negative impact on the sustainability of the ruminant’s production. Since enteric fermentation emission is one of the major sources of methane and is influenced by a number of environmental factors, diet being the most significant one, a number of in vitro and in vivo trials have been conducted with different feed supplements (halogenated methane analogues, bacteriocins, propionate enhancers, acetogens, fats etc.) for mitigating methane emissions directly or indirectly, yet extensive research is required before reaching a realistic solution. Keeping this in view, the present article aimed to cover comprehensively the different aspects of rumen methanogenesis such as the phylogeny of methanogens, their microbial ecology, factors affecting methane emission, mitigation strategies and need for further study.  相似文献

Effect of monensin on rumen metabolism in vitro.   总被引:23,自引:16,他引:7       下载免费PDF全文
The effect of Monensin (Rumensin, Eli Lilly & Co.) in incubations with mixed rumen microorganisms metabolizing carbohydrate or protein substrates was investigated. Monensin partly inhibited methanogenesis and increased propionate production, although the effect was not always statistically significant. Incubations with substrates specific for methane bacteria suggest that inhibition of methanogenesis by Monensin was not due to a specific toxic action on the methanogenic flora, but rather to an inhibition of hydrogen production from formate. Total and net microbial growth were considerably decreased by addition of Monensin, although the amount of substrate fermented was not altered, resulting in lowered values of microbial growth efficiency. In incubations with casein, Monensin lowered protein degradation in line with a lowered ammonia production, whereas a slight accumulation of alpha-amino nitrogen was observed. The results suggest that besides an influence of Monensin on the rumen carbohydrate fermentation pattern, another reason for the beneficial effects observed in vivo might be decreased food protein degradation in the rumen, altering the final site of protein digestion in the animal. Also, the possibility of a decrease in rumen microbial growth efficiency has to be considered when using Monensin as a food additive.  相似文献

Microbial ecosystem and methanogenesis in ruminants   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
Ruminant production is under increased public scrutiny in terms of the importance of cattle and other ruminants as major producers of the greenhouse gas methane. Methanogenesis is performed by methanogenic archaea, a specialised group of microbes present in several anaerobic environments including the rumen. In the rumen, methanogens utilise predominantly H2 and CO2 as substrates to produce methane, filling an important functional niche in the ecosystem. However, in addition to methanogens, other microbes also have an influence on methane production either because they are involved in hydrogen (H2) metabolism or because they affect the numbers of methanogens or other members of the microbiota. This study explores the relationship between some of these microbes and methanogenesis and highlights some functional groups that could play a role in decreasing methane emissions. Dihydrogen ('H2' from this point on) is the key element that drives methane production in the rumen. Among H2 producers, protozoa have a prominent position, which is strengthened by their close physical association with methanogens, which favours H2 transfer from one to the other. A strong positive interaction was found between protozoal numbers and methane emissions, and because this group is possibly not essential for rumen function, protozoa might be a target for methane mitigation. An important function that is associated with production of H2 is the degradation of fibrous plant material. However, not all members of the rumen fibrolytic community produce H2. Increasing the proportion of non-H2 producing fibrolytic microorganisms might decrease methane production without affecting forage degradability. Alternative pathways that use electron acceptors other than CO2 to oxidise H2 also exist in the rumen. Bacteria with this type of metabolism normally occupy a distinct ecological niche and are not dominant members of the microbiota; however, their numbers can increase if the right potential electron acceptor is present in the diet. Nitrate is an alternative electron sinks that can promote the growth of particular bacteria able to compete with methanogens. Because of the toxicity of the intermediate product, nitrite, the use of nitrate has not been fully explored, but in adapted animals, nitrite does not accumulate and nitrate supplementation may be an alternative under some dietary conditions that deserves to be further studied. In conclusion, methanogens in the rumen co-exist with other microbes, which have contrasting activities. A better understanding of these populations and the pathways that compete with methanogenesis may provide novel targets for emissions abatement in ruminant production.  相似文献

New aspects and strategies for methane mitigation from ruminants   总被引:1,自引:0,他引:1  
The growing demand for sustainable animal production is compelling researchers to explore the potential approaches to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases from livestock that are mainly produced by enteric fermentation. Some potential solutions, for instance, the use of chemical inhibitors to reduce methanogenesis, are not feasible in routine use due to their toxicity to ruminants, inhibition of efficient rumen function or other transitory effects. Strategies, such as use of plant secondary metabolites and dietary manipulations have emerged to reduce the methane emission, but these still require extensive research before these can be recommended and deployed in the livestock industry sector. Furthermore, immunization vaccines for methanogens and phages are also under investigation for mitigation of enteric methanogenesis. The increasing knowledge of methanogenic diversity in rumen, DNA sequencing technologies and bioinformatics have paved the way for chemogenomic strategies by targeting methane producers. Chemogenomics will help in finding target enzymes and proteins, which will further assist in the screening of natural as well chemical inhibitors. The construction of a methanogenic gene catalogue through these approaches is an attainable objective. This will lead to understand the microbiome function, its relation with the host and feeds, and therefore, will form the basis of practically viable and eco-friendly methane mitigation approaches, while improving the ruminant productivity.  相似文献

Methane production by intestinal methanogenic Archaea and their community structure were compared among phylogenetic lineages of millipedes. Tropical and temperate millipedes of 35 species and 17 families were investigated. Species that emitted methane were mostly in the juliform orders Julida, Spirobolida, and Spirostreptida. The irregular phylogenetic distribution of methane production correlated with the presence of the methanogen-specific mcrA gene. The study brings the first detailed survey of methanogens’ diversity in the digestive tract of millipedes. Sequences related to Methanosarcinales, Methanobacteriales, Methanomicrobiales and some unclassified Archaea were detected using molecular profiling (DGGE). The differences in substrate preferences of the main lineages of methanogenic Archaea found in different millipede orders indicate that the composition of methanogen communities may reflect the differences in available substrates for methanogenesis or the presence of symbiotic protozoa in the digestive tract. We conclude that differences in methane production in the millipede gut reflect differences in the activity and proliferation of intestinal methanogens rather than an absolute inability of some millipede taxa to host methanogens. This inference was supported by the general presence of methanogenic activity in millipede faecal pellets and the presence of the 16S rRNA gene of methanogens in all tested taxa in the two main groups of millipedes, the Helminthophora and the Pentazonia.  相似文献

Enrichment cultures of rumen bacteria degraded oxalate within 3 to 7 days in a medium containing 10% rumen fluid and an initial level of 45 mM sodium oxalate. This capability was maintained in serially transferred cultures. One mole of methane was produced per 3.8 mol of oxalate degraded. Molecular hydrogen and formate inhibited oxalate degradation but not methanogenesis; benzyl viologen and chloroform inhibited both oxalate degradation and methanogenesis. Attempts to isolate oxalate-degrading bacteria from these cultures were not successful. Oxalate degradation was uncoupled from methane production when enrichments were grown in continuous culture at dilution rates greater than or equal to 0.078 h-1. Growth of the uncoupled population (lacking methanogens) in batch culture was accompanied by degradation of 45 mM oxalate within 24 h and production of 0.93 mol of formate per mol of oxalate degraded. Oxalate degradation by the uncoupled population was not inhibited by molecular hydrogen or formate. Cell yields (grams [dry weight]) per mole of oxalate degraded by the primary enrichment and the uncoupled populations were 1.7 and 1.0, respectively.  相似文献

AIMS: To assess the effect of protozoal species on rumen fermentation characteristics in vitro. METHODS AND RESULTS: Entodinium caudatum, Isotricha intestinalis, Metadinium medium, and Eudiplodinium maggii from monofaunated wethers and mixed protozoa from conventional wethers were obtained by centrifugation, re-suspended at their normal densities in rumen fluid supernatants from defaunated or conventional wethers and incubated in vitro. The presence of protozoa increased the concentration of ammonia and altered the volatile fatty acids balance with more acetate and butyrate produced at the expense of propionate. Differences among species were observed, notably in the production of methane, which increased with E. caudatum as compared to other ciliates and to defaunated and mixed protozoa treatments (P < 0.05). The increased methanogenesis was not correlated to protozoal biomass indicating that the metabolism of this protozoan and/or its influence on the microbial ecosystem was responsible for this effect. CONCLUSIONS: Entodinium caudatum stimulated the production of methane, a negative effect that was reinforced by a concomitant increase in protein degradation. SIGNIFICANCE AND IMPACT OF THE STUDY: Comparison of individual species of protozoa highlighted the particular influence of E. caudatum on rumen fermentation. Its elimination (targeted defaunation) from the rumen could reduce methane production without affecting feed degradation.  相似文献

Aims

The effect of feeding dried distillers grains with solubles (DDGS) or reduced‐fat DDGS (RFDG) on ruminal methanogenesis and the rumen bacterial community of dairy cattle was evaluated.

Methods and Results

Treatments were CONT, a diet with no distillers grains; DG, inclusion of 20% DDGS; rfDG, inclusion of 20% RFDG; and MIX, inclusion of 10% DDGS and 10% RFDG. Methane emission was measured; rumen bacterial community was evaluated by sequencing the V4 region of the 16S rRNA gene. Total methane production remained unaffected. However, feeding distillers grains tended to reduce methanogenesis per unit of feed intake, decreased the abundance of the phylum Bacteroidetes and tended to increase Firmicutes. The abundance of Prevotellaceae positively correlated with feed intake; methane emission was positively correlated with the abundance of Prevotellaceae and was negatively correlated with the abundance of Succinivibrionaceae.

Conclusions

DDGS or RFDG may reduce methanogenesis per unit of feed intake; shifts in the abundance of predominant ruminal bacterial families may influence methane formation, likely because of their role on hydrogen liberation and utilization pathways.

Significance and Impact of the Study

Replacing corn and soybean meal with DDGS or RFDG in dairy rations may reduce the proportion of dietary energy wasted as methane, without detrimental effects on the overall bacterial population.  相似文献

The amount and nature of dietary starch are known to influence the extent and site of feed digestion in ruminants. However, how starch degradability may affect methanogenesis and methanogens along the ruminant''s digestive tract is poorly understood. This study examined the diversity and metabolic activity of methanogens in the rumen and cecum of lambs receiving wheat or corn high-grain-content diets. Methane production in vivo and ex situ was also monitored. In vivo daily methane emissions (CH4 g/day) were 36% (P < 0.05) lower in corn-fed lambs than in wheat-fed lambs. Ex situ methane production (μmol/h) was 4-fold higher for ruminal contents than for cecal contents (P < 0.01), while methanogens were 10-fold higher in the rumen than in the cecum (mcrA copy numbers; P < 0.01). Clone library analysis indicated that Methanobrevibacter was the dominant genus in both sites. Diet induced changes at the species level, as the Methanobrevibacter millerae-M. gottschalkii-M. smithii clade represented 78% of the sequences from the rumen of wheat-fed lambs and just about 52% of the sequences from the rumen of the corn-fed lambs. Diet did not affect mcrA expression in the rumen. In the cecum, however, expression was 4-fold and 2-fold lower than in the rumen for wheat- and corn-fed lambs, respectively. Though we had no direct evidence for compensation of reduced rumen methane production with higher cecum methanogenesis, the ecology of methanogens in the cecum should be better considered.  相似文献
