Individual variability of M. hyo Ab response in pigs’ sera after vaccination. a Vaccination, blood sampling protocol and associated data. The time points for body weight measures and blood samples are represented by stars. b Levels of M. hyo Ab in 1/40 diluted sera from vaccinated and non-vaccinated animals at 0 (day of vaccination), 21 (day of booster), 28, 35, and 118 days post vaccination (dpv). Dotted lines represent thresholds of the assay given by the provider. Statistical analyses: unpaired t test between controls and vaccinated animals (***p < 0.001). c Levels of M. hyo Ab in 1/4 diluted sera from vaccinated and control animals at 21 dpv. Dotted lines represent thresholds of detection (mean + 2 SD of the controls). Statistical analyses: unpaired t test between controls and vaccinated animals (***p < 0.001). d Levels of M. hyo Ab in 1/40 diluted sera from vaccinated males and females at 0, 21, 28, 35, and 118 dpv. Dotted lines represent the thresholds of the assay given by the provider. Statistical analyses: data were fitted using a mixed linear regression model with sex, age at weaning and batch as fixed effects, and litter as random effect; and effect of sex was evaluated by ANOVA (**p < 0.01)
