^aGroups were least-ADG steers (n = 8), with the least average daily gain, and greatest-ADG steers (n = 8), with the greatest average daily gain, with groups having similar dry matter intake.

^bAUC = area under the curve calculated by receiver–operator characteristic curve analysis.

^cFDR = false discovery rate p-adjustment.
