- Abstract
- c-PCR technique was utilized in two studies to estimate rumen microbial population change when
animals received different ratio of roughage and concentrate, and incubation medium pH was
different in in vitro studies.
In experiment 1, a competitive PCR technique was used to enumerate the Fibrobacter
succinogenes and Streptococcus bovis in the rumen of Holstein steers. An internal control DNA
was constructed for use in competitive PCRs and was shown to amplify under the same reaction
conditions and with the same amplification efficiency as the target DNA. DNA from a known number
of F. succinogenes and S. bovis cells was coamplified with the internal control to construct a
standard curve. Rumen samples were collected from two Holstein steers fed two diets in rotation:
high roughage and high concentrate. DNA extracted from these and spiked with internal control
DNA was amplified with the F. succinogenes and S. bovis specific primer pair. The relative
intensities of the PCR products were used to quantitate the numbers of F. succinogenes and S.
bovis cell equivalents to those in the rumen samples. The numbers ranged from 3.41×107 ml-1 to
5.36×107 ml-1 and from 2.03×107 to 4.47×107 ml-1, respectively. There was a trend of
increased F. succinogenes with higher roughage diet, and increased S. bovis with higher
concentrate diet.
