Regression was drawn with body weight (x) and growth performance (y); x has a range from 0 to 120 kcal/kg, 0 represents the ME level of the NC-3 diet and 120 represents the ME level of the PC diet for convenience.
Calculated values are calculated by substituting body weight values to estimate the matrix value of xylanase. Estimated values over 120 kcal/kg could be biased.
ME, metabolizable energy; PC, energy sufficient diet.
