Table 3 Simultaneous tests for general linear hypotheses explaining RBT score and CFT titers (Lmer4 package, animal considered as random effect)

From: Brucella melitensis Rev.1 vaccination generates a higher shedding risk of the vaccine strain in Alpine ibex (Capra ibex) compared to the domestic goat (Capra hircus)
