Figure 3. Milk protein percentage and yield (panels A and B, respectively), for alveolar<br />

and cisternal milk obtained 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 h since <strong>the</strong> last milking. Values are<br />

means <strong>of</strong> 32 ewes studied in a 6 x 6 Latin square design every 3 d for 18 d. Significant<br />

differences between alveolar and cisternal fractions within a time category are indicated<br />

by * (P< 0.05).<br />
