The authors would like to make the following corrections to the published paper [1]:
1. A simple summary was added.
2. “p < 0.001” was changed to “p < 0.01” throughout the paper.
3. In the footnotes of Tables 3–7, the definition of “a,b” was changed to “Means within the same row with common superscript letters are not significantly different (p ≥ 0.05)”.
4. Some data of the three parameters of broiler chicken growth performance were corrected in Table 3 and, therefore, in the related sentences in the paper. The corrected version is as follows:
The authors would like to apologize for any inconvenience caused to the readers by these changes.
