Betaine Modulates Rumen Archaeal Community and Functioning during Heat and Osmotic Stress Conditions In Vitro

Abstract: Rumen archaea play an important role in scavenging ruminal hydrogen (H2) and thus facilitate rumen fermentation. They require optimum temperature and osmolality for their growth and metabolism; however, a number of external factors may put archaea under heat and osmotic stress. Betaine is an osmolyte, molecular chaperone, and antioxidant; therefore, it bears potential to combat against these stressors. In this in vitro study, three betaine levels, namely, 0 (control), 51 (low), and 286 (high) ppm, were used. E… Show more

“…In our study, EXT decreased Methanosphaera and Methanobrevibacter without affecting methane formation. However, archaeal phylogeny may not be a predictor of their activity [ 45 ], and the abundance of some other players like anaerobic fungi and bacteria may be more influential [ 7 ]. The potential of grape phenols on mitigating methane may be related to the level of certain active compounds such as procyanidins and the supplementation method.…”

“…This methanogen was isolated from a UASB reactor [ 91 ]. Although we have not differentiated the proportion of Methanosaeta between solid and liquid phases in this study; nevertheless, their strict acetoclastic nature makes it likely that they are more abundant in the liquid phase [ 92 ].…”
