Abstract：In order to understand the prevalence of FCoV in Guangdong,a total of 301 cat feces samples were collected from 6 cities in Guangdong from 2022 to 2023.FCoV identification and serotyping of the samples were performed by real-time fluorescent RT-PCR,and the infection of FCoV in cats was analyzed from age,gender,species and other aspects.The results showed that the positive rate of FCoV was(107/301),and the serotyping was type Ⅰ.The 55 S1 gene sequences are analyzed for genetic evolution with other reference strains at home and abroad.It was found that FCoV has a high degree of genetic diversity.
