Hemoplasma infection significantly impacts felines health, yet there is a research gap regarding free-ranging wild small felids. Therefore, this study aimed to investigate the occurrence of hemoplasma in Leopardus geoffroyi and Leopardus wiedii in southern Brazil. For this purpose, we conducted molecular research for Mycoplasma spp.

Background And Aim: Reproductive disorders in swine herds pose significant challenges to pig breeding due to both infectious and non-infectious factors. In large-scale pig farming, coinfections are increasingly common, affecting sow health and herd productivity. This study aimed to determine occurrence and coinfection patterns of s and porcine circovirus type 3 in Vietnamese pig farms and to evaluate their association with reproductive disorders and clinical signs in affected herds.

Article Synopsis
- Armadillos and anteaters interact with various pathogens and parasites, making them potential hosts for zoonotic diseases, but research on these interactions is limited.
- A study in Brazil analyzed 167 samples from different species of armadillos and anteaters to identify occurrences of pathogens like Ehrlichia, Anaplasma, Bartonella, and hemoplasmas.
- Results showed low detection rates, with only one positive sample each for Anaplasma in six-banded armadillos and Ehrlichia in giant anteaters, indicating the need for further research on disease dynamics in these mammals.

Arthropod vectors play a crucial role in the transmission of hemotropic mycoplasmas, small bacteria that infect red blood cells in a wide range of animals and humans globally, leading to intravascular infections. Traditional Giemsa-stained thin blood smears, used for diagnosing hemotropic mycoplasmas through microscopic examination, have low sensitivity and are effective only when bacteremia levels are high. This study aimed to employ molecular methods to detect and genetically characterize hemotropic mycoplasmas in goats as well as investigate the potential role of fleas as vectors.
