Abstract
The present disclosure provides methods for reducing methane emissions from a ruminant comprising administering to the ruminant a composition comprising a fungal strain, wherein the fungal strain comprises a vanadium-dependent haloperoxidase (VHPO) such as Curvularia sp. strain 4388 (NMI Accession No. V22/011149). The disclosure also provides a cell or a biologically pure culture of Curvularia sp. strain 4388 (NMI Accession No. V22/011149) or a mutant thereof having all identifying characteristics of the strain.
