Effect of Bacillus amyloliquefaciens CECT 5490 (1.0 × 106 CFU/g of feed) (BA) on the expression of intestinal immunity related genes in broilers at day 16. Non: non-challenged; NE: NE challenged. IFN-γ: interferon-γ; IL18: Interleukin-18; IL2: Interlukin-2; IgA, IgG and IgM: Immunoglobulin A, G and M. a-c bars with different letters significantly differ on the basis on Tukeys’ multiple tests (P < 0.05). Genes used as reference genes were HMBS and YWHAZ. Error bars show SEM for 8 replicates for each treatment
