1Data are means of 16 replicates per treatment in carbohydrase level and 24 replicates per treatment among temperature. Means with different superscript are different (P < 0.05). CON, control; 1X, 50 g/tonne carbohydrase admixture; 2X, 100 g/tonne of carbohydrase admixture; TN, thermoneutral; HS, heat stress; Temp, temperature; Enz, Carbohydrase treatment.
