Effects of grape pomace on growth performance, serum biochemical indices, amino acid composition, and rumen microbial diversity in Dorper × Hu hybrid sheep
The results demonstrate that incorporating GP into the diet can enhance antioxidant status and improve muscle amino acid profiles in Dorper × Hu hybrid sheep, without compromising production performance. The selective reduction in specific rumen bacteria suggests a modulatory effect. This study provides a theoretical foundation for the effective utilization of GP in complete pellet feeds for ruminants.
