Abstract :
A crucial area of scientific research is the genetic as well as biological diversity of microorganisms. Efforts are needed to improve the ability of small ruminant like goat to convert feed stuffs available locally to animal products taking into consideration the importance of Black Bengal goat in livestock strategy. Due to the recent advancement in the field of molecular biology and genomics there has been development of metagenomics. This in turn can enable researchers; scientists; as well as post graduate students to conduct a more holistic examination of the structure as well as function of rumen microflora of goat. In the present metagenomic profiling has revealed the abundance of Prevotella sp. & Bacteroides sp. (pectin digesting bacteria) compared to other microbes. Based on such kind of studies future work on genogrouping of the rumen microflora of Black Bengal goat can also be undertaken.
