Newly born caries-resistant rats were fostered by caries-susceptible mothers and vice versa. The caries-resistant young remained caries-resistant; the caries-susceptible young remained susceptible. The foster mothers did not affect the caries experience of the young they nursed. It may be concluded that, in these animals, genotype played a role in their resistance or susceptibility to dental caries.
