Abstract excerpt
Hemotropic Mycoplasma spp., also known as hemoplasmas, are blood-borne pathogens that infect red blood cells and can cause hemolytic anemia in mammals, including dogs. Mycoplasma haemocanis (Mhc) and 'Candidatus Mycoplasma haematoparvum' (CMhp) are the two most common canine hemoplasma species. However, molecular epidemiological data and information on their genetic diversity remain scarce in Thailand. This study...
