However, information on the prevalence and identification of <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic> in dogs and cats in China is limited. Thus, to investigate the prevalence of trichomoniasis in dogs and cats in Nanchang city, South China, a total of 405 fecal samples were collected from 111 cats and 294 dogs. The presence of <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic> and <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic> were determined using the nested polymerase chain reaction (PCR) method, targeting the ITS1-5.8SrRNA-ITS2 of <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic>, and 18SrRNA of <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic>. The overall prevalence of <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic> was 15.3% (62\/405), with a prevalence of 5.8% (17\/294) in dogs and 40.5% (45\/111) in cats. The total prevalence of <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic> was 17.3% (70\/405), with a prevalence of 22.4% (66\/294) in dogs and 3.6% (4\/111) in cats. Statistical analysis revealed significant correlations between the prevalence of <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic> and factors including breed, season and environmental conditions in dogs; in cats, there was a significant correlation with season, breeds and age. For <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic>, the different sampling sites of dogs showed a significant correlation. Our results reveal that <jats:italic>T. foetus<\/jats:italic> is predominantly found in cats and <jats:italic>P. hominis<\/jats:italic> is predominantly found in dogs in Nanchang city. These findings contributed to effective prevention and control of trichomoniasis in dogs and cats in this region.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1051\/parasite\/2025016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,4,11]],"date-time":"2025-04-11T07:52:08Z","timestamp":1744357928000},"page":"22","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":5,"title":["Prevalence
