The relationship between dietary concentrations of kafirin and energy utilisation in broiler chickens offered sorghum-based diets.1

Item Observations (n) Experiment leverage (P) Dietary kafirin leverage (P) Whole model
ME:GE ratio 10 0.109 0.034 R2 = 0.71
P = 0.045
AMEn 13 0.485 0.013 R2 = 0.70
P = 0.074

ME = metabolizable energy; GE = gross energy; AMEn = N-corrected apparent metabolizable energy.
