¹A total of 32 growing barrows (initially 18.5 kg; Line 359 × Camborough; PIC, Hendersonville, TN) were randomly allotted to one of four dietary treatments in a randomized complete block design with eight replicate pigs per diet.

²Data are least square means of eight observations for all treatments except for white sorghum (n = 7).

^a,bMeans within a row that do not have a common superscript differ, P < 0.05.
