Serum antibody responses to M. haemolytica and P. multocida in suckling calves and in calves following weaning and transportation stress. Antibody titres to M. haemolytica were measured using both a recombinant leukotoxin (Lkt) protein (A) and soluble bacterial lysate (B). Antibody titres to P. multocida were measured using soluble bacterial lysate (C). Antibody titers to recombinant My. bovis MilA-ab (D). Significant differences were observed in antibody titres on Day 28 for M. haemolytica and P. multocida, when comparing among the three treatment groups (Suckling calves, Weaned calves, and Weaned + Transport calves) and these differences are indicated by letters (a,b,c). Data presented are the mean and 1 SD
