IW, initial weight; FW, final weight; WGR, weight gain rate (%) = (Wt–W0) × 100/W0; SGR, specific growth rate (% day1) = (LnWt–LnW0) × 100/day; FCR, feed conversion ratio = feed consumption (g)/weight gain (g); RFI, relative feed intake (%/day) = 100 × total amount of the feed consumed × 2/[(W0 + Wt) × days]. Values are means ± SEM (n = 3). Means in the same column with different letters indicate significant differences (P < 0.05).
