^a,bWithin a row, means without a common superscript differ (P < 0.05).

*Diets were offered in a paired choice as mash during each experimental period.

^†Least-squares means based on nine pen-observations of eight pigs each for each period. For ADFI, an effect of period (P < 0.05) and diet combination and period did not interact (P > 0.05). For ADG and G:F, an effect of period (P < 0.05) was observed.
