The objective of this study was to determine possible synergistic effects of supplementing one of three fungal phytases: Aspergillus fumitagus PhyA (AFP), A. niger PhyA (ANP), or Peniophora lyci phytase (PLP) with an Escherichia coli AppA phytase (EP) in diets for pigs. Three experiments, each lasting for 4 wk, were conducted with a total of 106 weanling pigs (5 wk old). The corn-soybean meal basal diet (BD) contained no supplemental inorganic P. In Exp. 1, 35 pigs (8.6 +/- 1.0 kg BW) were fed (as-fed basis) BD + AFP at 750 U/kg of feed, BD + inorganic P (0.2% P), or BD + PLP at 500, 750, or 1,000 U/kg feed. Pigs fed BD + AFP or BD + 0.2% P had higher (P < 0.05) plasma inorganic P concentrations than those fed BD + PLP at the end of the trial (wk 4). In Exp. 2, 35 pigs (8.1 +/- 0.9 kg BW) were fed BD + AFP, EP, PLP, a 1:1 mix of AFP:EP, or a 1:1 mix of PLP:EP at 500 U/kg. Pigs fed the AFP:EP mixture had growth performance and plasma measures similar to those fed either enzyme alone. Pigs fed the PLP:EP mixture had lower (P < 0.05) plasma alkaline phosphatase activity than those fed BD + PLP. Pigs fed BD + PLP had lower (P < 0.05) plasma inorganic P concentrations than pigs fed BD + EP, and higher (P < 0.05) plasma alkaline phosphatase activity than all other groups at wk 4. In Exp. 3, 36 pigs (9.1 +/- 1.2 kg BW) were fed BD + ANP, EP, or a 1:1 mix of ANP:EP at 500 U/kg feed. Pigs fed the two enzymes together had lower (P < 0.05) plasma inorganic P concentration than those fed BD + EP and lower (P < 0.05) plasma alkaline phosphatase activity than pigs fed BD + ANP at wk 4. In conclusion, although the four phytases showed different effects on plasma P status of weanling pigs, there was no synergistic effect between any of the three fungal phytases and the bacterial phytase on the plasma measures or growth performance under the conditions of the present study.
