aFor linear peptides, N-terminal residues AEGEF are phage coat protein residues. Constrained peptides contain a phage coat protein G residue at their C-terminus.

bNumber of IgY samples that the peptides was enriched against/total number of IgY samples: enrichment was defined as peptides giving a Z score of ≥2.0.

cROC curves were produced for the recognition of the peptides with IgY from S. Enteritidis infected (n = 19) and S. Typhimurium or S. Hadar infected (n = 25) chickens in an ELISA. AUC and corresponding p values are listed.
