As one of the important components of ruminant gastrointestinal tract (GIT) microbiome, archaea are involved in many biological processes, especially methanogenesis. In spite of being a well-recognised member of the mammalian gut microbiome, it remains poorly characterized, partly due to the lack of a unified reference genome catalog.

基于反刍动物胃肠道古细菌基因组图谱的肠道甲烷生产新见解


作为反刍动物胃肠道 （GIT） 微生物组的重要组成部分之一，古细菌参与许多生物过程，尤其是甲烷生成。尽管它是哺乳动物肠道微生物组公认的成员，但它的特征仍然很差，部分原因是缺乏统一的参考基因组目录。
