The objective of this study was to compare the effects of graded inclusions of 2 phytase products and a mineral P source in broiler chickens using different response traits, including ileum microbiota composition. Eleven experimental diets were used. These were a low-P basal diet and diets supplemented with increasing levels of dicalcium phosphate (DCP), Natuphos E 5000 G (NE), or Natuphos 5000 G (N). The performance traits, prececal P digestibility, and tibia and foot ash results were subjected to regression analysis and slope ratios were used to compare the supplements based on the measured evaluation traits. In the microbiota analysis, total nucleic acids were extracted and the 16S rRNA gene was targeted for use in the amplicon sequencing process. Phylogenetic analysis was performed using Mothur, followed by a multivariate statistical analysis. The various response traits caused different estimates of relative efficacy. The mean results of all the response traits showed that a 1.75-fold increase in the activity of N was needed to achieve the same response as NE and the variability among the detected traits ranged from 1.59 (prececally digestible P intake) to 1.91 (amount of tibia ash). The mean slope ratio between DCP and NE was 311 and varied between 208 (ADG) and 349 (foot ash concentration). The mean slope ratio for phytase N with DCP was 552 and varied from 357 (ADG) to 640 (tibia ash concentration). The ileum microbiota composition was not different among the diets. A similar composition was driven in the abundance of Lactobacillus crispatus, Lactobacillus salivarius, and Lactobacillus gallinarum. The results suggest that different response traits cause markedly different estimates of relative phytase efficacy.
