Rumen metagenome profiles are heritable and rank the New Zealand national sheep flock for enteric methane emissions

Abstract Background Global targets to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet international climate change commitments have driven the livestock industry to develop solutions to reduce methane emission in ruminants while maintaining production. Research has shown that selective breeding for low meth...
