Growth performance and total tract digestibility of nutrients for weanling pigs are improved by an exogenous xylanase and a stimbiotic regardless of maternal xylanase consumption

Abstract Background Exogenous xylanase can increase utilization of fiber and energy when included in diets for pigs, and xylo-oligosaccharides (XOS) may improve growth performance of pigs by modulating intestinal fermentation. However, it is unclear if a stimbiotic (i.e., a combination of xylanase a...
