Abstract
The little-studied large bacteria Oscillospira, Lampropedia , and ovals attach rapidly in large numbers to the cuticular surface of clover and grass leaves in the rumen. The cuticle of green leaves may constitute a specific niche for these bacteria.This publication has 7 references indexed in Scilit:
