RMSE: root mean square error; M0: negative control without antibiotic or MOS; M1: supplementation of 1 g AgriMos/kg feed; M2: supplementation of 2 g AgriMos/kg; M4: supplementation of 4 g AgriMos/kg feed; AB: antibiotic growth promoter containing feed with 0.2 g Maxus-200 (40 ppm avilamycin supplementation)/kg feed; NI: non-immunized group fed no supplementation.
a,b,c common letters within rows indicate no differences at P < 0.05.
** There was no effect of interaction between treatment and replication.
† Replication effect was significant (P < 0.05).
