INTRODUCTION QUESTION #6: What is the key feature of seaweeds mentioned in the text that may impact methane production by rumen methanogens?
1 answer
The key feature of seaweeds mentioned in the text that may impact methane production by rumen methanogens is their high content of bioactive compounds such as bromoform and iodoform. These compounds have been shown to inhibit the growth and activity of rumen methanogens, thereby reducing methane production in ruminant animals.
