About the Author
Burk A. Dehority's research interests are in the area of rumen microbiology, focusing on the bacteria, protozoa and fungi responsible for the breakdown of forage structural carbohydrates and their interactions. His studies have involved enumeration, isolation and identification of the functionally active rumen bacteria and the effects of ration changes. Studies have also been conducted on microbial digestion in the hindgut of both ruminants and non-ruminants, and its contribution to overall ration digestibility. In recent years he has placed increased emphasis on studying the value of protozoa and fungi in the overall rumen fermentation process. A unique area of Burk Dehority's research has been his extensive studies on the ecology of the microbial populations, particularly the protozoa, in numerous species of herbivores from various geographical areas around the world. He teaches a graduate course in Rumen Microbiology at Wooster, and he advises graduate students.
