The organs where origin and/or maturation and proliferation of lymphocytes occur are called lymphoid organs.
Lymphoid organs are of two types-
1. Primary lymphoid organs
2. Secondary lymphoid organs.
The primary lymphoid organs are bone marrow and thymus where immature lymphocytes differentiate into antigen-sensitive lymphocytes.
The bone marrow is the main lymphoid organ where all blood cells including lymphocytes are produced.
The secondary lymphoid organs provide the sites for interaction of lymphocytes with the antigen, which then proliferate to become effector cells.
