Chart showing that gilts and sows are significantly different groups when antibodies respond to PPV
Figure 1

Antibody response against PPV in sows of different parity; results are represented as average and standard deviation of the percentage of negative breeders per farm. Different letters denote a statistical significant difference (Mann-Whitney U test; p<0.05).
