LSM of arbitrary mRNA abundance for genes related to antimicrobial strategies in whole blood leukocytes evaluated 3 days after calving from Simmental and Holstein cows treated with pegbovigrastim (PEG) or with saline (CTR) at approximately Day 7 relative to calving and within 24 h the day of calving.
