Abstract Two experiments evaluated the additivity of phytate content and coefficient of total tract apparent digestibility (CTTAD) of phosphorus (P) in wheat-barley (WB) and corn (C) when soaked (exp. 1) or fed dry to pigs (exp. 2) in combination with or without microbial phytase (1250 FTU/kg as-fed). In exp. 1, WB (1:1, w/w) and C were soaked separately or together (W:B:C = 1:1:2, w/w/w) without (WBC) or with microbial phytase (WBC + phy). Phytate content was affected by the interaction between diet and soaking time (P
