Note: Logistic regression analyses were performed to estimate probability of resistance to rotavirus infection with antibody titers to individual viral proteins.

a Likelihood ratio test p values. Smaller p value indicates strong signicant association of resistance to rotavirus infection. P values >0.05 are not shown. P values <0.01 are in boldface.
