Antibody titers in maternal colostrum and calves plasma. Scatter plot showing the distribution of anti-BLV antibody titers in 51 colostrum-calf paired samples belonging to the dairy farm where all animals (except for calf #100) were born. Maternal colostrum and calves antibody titers were significantly different (Mann Whitney, P < 0.0001) and showed a positive correlation (Spearman rank test, r = 0.638). Arrows indicate values of the calves under study.
