Pigs with daily fecal scores of ≥2 were considered diarrheic.
Fecal consistency was scored as follows: 0, normal; 1, pasty; 2, semiliquid; and 3, liquid.
Mean cumulative score calculation included all the pigs for 7 days postchallenge in each group.
Standard error of the mean.
Means in the same column with different superscript letters (A, B) differ significantly (GLM, p≤0.05); shared letters indicate no significant difference.
