Abstract: The polymorphic nature and the difficulty of cultivation of rumen protozoa have hampered effective assessment of protozoal taxonomy by microscopic examinations.The application of molecular biotechnology based on sequence analyse of 18S rRNA/rDNA should provide important information in the ruminal protozoal taxonomy.So the technological process can be introduced in this artical.

Key words: rumen protozoa; small subunit 18S rRNA/rDNA; taxonomy
