Effect of phenolic acids and phenolics from plant cell walls on rumenlike fermentation in consecutive batch culture.

abstract：:Since 2006, Geomyces destructans, the causative agent of white nose syndrome (WNS), has killed over 5.7 million bats in North America. The current hypothesis suggests that this novel fungus is an invasive species from Europe, but little is known about the diversity within the genus Geomyces and its distribution on bat...
