Values are Mean±SE; Values with different lowercase superscripts (a, b or c) in the same parameter (row) differ significantly (p<0.05). T1; 0% MLP refers to control (only basal feed), T2; 2% MLP refers to basal feed with 2% MLP, T3; 4% MLP means basal feed with 4% MLP and T4; 6% MLP means basal feed with 6% MLP.
