¹BW, body weight; ADG, average daily gain; ADFI, average daily feed intake; FCR, feed conversion ratio.

²LST, Lasia spinosa Thw.; LST0, control diet; LST1, 1% supplementation level of LST powder; LST2, 2% supplementation level of LST powder; LST4, 4% supplementation level of LST powder.

³Mean values within a row with different letters differ at p < 0.05.

⁴SEM.

^(a–c)are the presented letters of statistical p-value. Same letters in a row means that p > 0.05, presenting the statistical results not significant difference. Different letters in a row means that p < 0.05, presenting the analysis results in significant difference.
