Abstract

The infection rates of Ehrlichia canis and related species in dogs in eastern Sudan were examined using molecular methods. Among 78 dogs examined, 63 (80.8%), 19 (24.4%), and 26 (33.3%) were positive for E. canis, Anaplasma platys, Mycoplasma haemocanis, and "Candidatus Mycoplasma haemoparvum," respectively. Among these, 30 dogs were single-positive: 25 for E. canis, 2 for A. platys, 1 for M. hemocanis, and 2 for "C. M. haemoparvum." The rest of the dogs (48.7%) were positive for two or more pathogens.
