maturation site of lymphoid cells
bone marrow, bursa of Fabricius, thymus, Peyer’s Patches in Pigs and Ruminants Secondary Lymphoid Organs
efficient at trapping and concentrating foreign substances
site of Ag-driven proliferation and differentiation; e.g. Ab production
spleen, lymph nodes, diffuse tissues
