Abstract
The use of antibiotics in animal production raises great public safety concerns;therefore,there is an urgent need for the development of substitutes for antibiotics.In recent decades,plant-derived feed additives have been widely investigated as antibiotic alternatives for use in animal health and production because they exert multiple biological functions and are less likely to induce resistance development.This review summarizes the research history and classification of phytogenic feed additives and their main functions,potential modes of action,influencing factors,and potential negative effects.Further,we highlight the challenges in developing sustainable,safe,and affordable plant-derived antibiotic alter-natives for use in livestock production.
