A 10-day pure culture of Neocallimastix sp. YAK11, isolated from rumen fluids of yak (Bos grunniens) was evaluated for fibrolytic activity, apparent dry matter disappearance (ADMD), ferulic acid, reducing sugars and volatile fatty acids (VFA). The fungus was grown on oat straw (OS), corn stalks (CS)...
