Bacterial 16S ribosomal DNA analysis of pyrrolizidine alkaloid detoxifying enrichments from the ovine rumen

Bacterial cultures enriched from sheep rumen fluid have demonstrated the ability to detoxify pyrrolizidine alkaloids (seneciphylline and jacobine) in tansy ragwort (Senecio jacobaea). The microbes are difficult to isolate using classical anaerobic techniques, therefore, microbes from two different e...
