• Dynamics of the ruminal microbial ecosystem, and inhibition of methanogenesis and propiogenesis in response to nitrate feeding to Holstein calves 

      Ortiz Chura, Abimael; Gere, José; Marcoppido, Gisela Ariana; Depetris, Gustavo; Cravero, Silvio Lorenzo Pedro; Faverin, Claudia; Pinares-Patiño, Cesar; Cataldi, Angel Adrian; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza (Elsevier, 2021-12)
      It is known that nitrate inhibits ruminal methanogenesis, mainly through competition with hydrogenotrophic methanogens for available hydrogen (H2) and also through toxic effects on the methanogens. However, there is limited ...
    • Enteric methane emission from Sheep fed with rhodes grass hay (Chloris gayana) alone or supplemented with dried distillers’ grains with solubles 

      Gere, José; Feksa Frasson, Mónica; Wawrzkiewicz, Marisa; Fernández Pepi, María Gabriela; Ramos, María Laura; Bualo, Ricardo Alberto; Ceron Cucchi, Maria Esperanza; Jaurena, Gustavo (MDPI, 2022-09)
      Livestock systems based on subtropical and tropical pastures are characterized by the low productivity of livestock due to the poor nutritional value of the forage (low nitrogen concentration and digestibility, and high ...

(Elsevier, 2023-01)
      On-farm methane (CH4) emissions need to be estimated accurately so that the mitigation effect of recommended practices can be accounted for. In the present study prediction equations for enteric CH4 have been developed in ...
