GENOMEWIDE AND ENZYMATIC ANALYSIS REVEALS EFFICIENT D-GALACTURONIC ACID METABOLISM IN THE BASIDIOMYCETE YEAST RHODOSPORIDIUM TORULOIDES

ABSTRACT Biorefining of renewable feedstocks is one of the most promising routes to replace fossil-based products.Since many common fermentation hosts, such as Saccharomyces cerevisiae, are naturally unable to convert many component plant cell wall polysaccharides, the identification of organisms with broad catabolism capabilities represents an opp

This study presents the results of an experiment in which the effect of addition of a yeast culture (Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Strain 47) on rumen fermentation was studied in thirty-six dairy cows of Holstein breed.The animals were divided into one Cod Liver Oil control and five experimental groups.Each group involved 6 individuals.The animals rece
