a–dMeans in each column without common superscripts are significantly different. *Data are means of four replicates having 20 birds in each replicate. BWG: body weight gain, FI: feed intake, FCR: feed conversion ratio, CP: crude protein, Met + Cys: methionine + cystine, SEM: standard error of mean, NS: not statistically significant; *; **. |
