Previous studies show heamotropic Mycoplasma infection frequently occurs among splenectomized, immuno-suppressive or co-infected dog populations. However, in our study, the detection of 162 blood samples from dogs found 3 healthy, female dogs infected with Mycoplasma haemocanis in southeastern China. These infected dogs were grown in dog breeding center and had a history of tick infestation. This is the first molecular report of M. haemocanis in dogs from China. The 16S rRNA gene was partially sequenced and a phylogenetic tree constructed. Mycoplasma spp. was 99.9%-100% identical to the corresponding gene sequences of M. haemocanis and M. haemofelis available in GenBank. In this study, Mycoplasma spp. was identified as M. haemocanis because the bacterium was obtained from dogs. |
