SATELLITE SYMPOSIUM OF 8TH ANIMAL SCIENCE CONGRESS OF AAAP
"Rumen Microorganisms, Digestion and Productivity in Ruminants"
20-21 October, 1996. Kyoto, Japan


The satellite symposium of Animal Science Congress of AAAP "Rumen Micro- organisms, Digestion and Productivity in Ruminants" will be held in Kyoto from 20 to 21 of October, 1996 after the main congress. The satellite symposium will consist of plenary lectures by 23 main speakers as shown in the program below and poster presentations. The scientific program will cover the following topics:
(1) Rumen microorganisms including bacteria, protozoa and fungi, their morphology, metabolism, molecular biology, and ecology.

(2) Ruminal digestion of fibre, protein, lipids and others.

(3) Nutrition, physiology and other means for enhancing the production of meat, milk and wool.
The organising committee of the satellite symposium hopes that many poster presentations will be given at the symposium. Up to 80 posters can be accepted and the deadline for submitting abstract to us is the end of August. The abstract should be prepared in a one-page sheet of paper (A4) with a title, authors and addresses. The display area of each poster will be within 100 cm wide and 140 cm high.

The registration fees will be 10,000 yen. If you wish to participate the satellite symposium, please contact with R. Onodera.
