RL1, RL2, RL3, RL4 represent groups of Hu sheep fed TMR diets contained fermented SMPE at 0%, 15%, 30% and 45%, respectively. IBW, initial body weight, FBW, final body weight, WG, weight gain, ADG, average daily gain, ADFI, average daily feed intake, FCR, feed conversion ratio. The different letter in each column indicates a significant difference (p < 0.05, n = 30).
