¹The feed-swap group was fed the grower diet in period 1 (P1) followed by the finisher diet in period 2 (P2), the finisher-fed group was fed the finisher diet in both periods, and the grower-fed group was fed the grower diet in both periods.

²MWT = mid metabolic BW; RFI = residual feed intake; KR = Kleiber ratio.
