Effect of yeast-supplementation on zootechnical performance parameters of piglets. Box-Whisker plots have been used to compare zootechnical performance parameters of piglets among different pre- and post-weaning yeast supplementation regimens including Control-Control, Control-Yeast, Yeast-Control, and Yeast-Yeast. Parameters compared included: (a) final day (day 28 post-weaning) body weight, (b) average daily feed intake (g per pen of four piglets), (c) average daily weight gain (g per piglet), and (d) feed conversion ratio calculated per pen of four piglets. Boxes denote interquartile range, with a line at the median, while whiskers are indicating minimal and maximal observations for each parameter. Superscripts denote significant difference (P < 0.05; a–c) or statistical trend (P < 0.1; A, B).
