Despite rapid technical progress, routine veterinary deployment still faces uncertainty in study design, sample preparation, and interpretation thresholds across diverse hosts and sample matrices. Accordingly, this review consolidates recent evidence and provides workflow-oriented guidance for veterinary diagnostics and One Health surveillance. Its portability, ability to generate real-time long-read data, and minimal infrastructure requirements enable rapid, on-site sequencing for veterinary diagnostics and surveillance. This review examines the principles of nanopore sequencing and its advantages over conventional methods, surveying recent applications across viral, bacterial (including antimicrobial resistance, AMR), and parasitic pathogen detection in animals. In viral diagnostics, it facilitates rapid whole-genome sequencing and outbreak tracing in field settings. For bacterial pathogens, it enables near-complete genome assembly and identification of plasmid-borne AMR genes. Emerging studies also demonstrate its utility in parasitology, from high-resolution species identification to whole-genome assemblies. We compare these advancements with traditional diagnostics, highlighting strengths in speed and comprehensiveness while addressing current limitations in accuracy and host-DNA interference. As technology matures through improvements in chemistry and adaptive sampling, nanopore sequencing is poised to transform veterinary pathogen detection and bolster One Health surveillance of emerging zoonoses.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/vetsci13030216","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,26]],"date-time":"2026-02-26T09:31:32Z","timestamp":1772098292000},"page":"216","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Nanopore Sequencing in Veterinary Pathogen Detection: A Review of Technologies and Applications"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"13","author":[{"given":"Lei","family":"Xu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Leilei","family":"Zhao","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Zeyu","family":"Tong","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Kai","family":"Peng","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-0593-2475","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Mianzhi","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Runsheng","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Precision Diagnostic and Therapeutic Technology, City University of Hong Kong Shenzhen Futian Research Institute, Shenzhen 518057, China"},{"name":"Department of Infectious Diseases and Public Health, Jockey Club College of Veterinary Medicine and Life Sciences, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong 999077, China"},{"name":"Tung Biomedical Sciences Centre, City University of Hong Kong, Hong Kong 999077, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6486-9600","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Zhiqiang","family":"Wang","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"Jiangsu Interdisciplinary Center for Zoonoses and Biosafety, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Zoonosis, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-8333-9891","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Ruichao","family":"Li","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Jiangsu Co-Innovation Center for Prevention and Control of Important Animal Infectious Diseases and Zoonoses, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"College of Veterinary Medicine, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"Jiangsu Interdisciplinary Center for Zoonoses and Biosafety, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"},{"name":"Jiangsu Key Laboratory of Zoonosis, Yangzhou University, Yangzhou 225009, China"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2026,2,25]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Lamb, H.J., Hayes, B.J., Nguyen, L.T., and Ross, E.M.
