Abstract：In order to understand the infection and prevalence of Chlamydia among horses in some area of Guangxi province,988 serum samples collected from 12 counties of Baise and Hechi in 2021-2023 were conducted indirect hemagglutination test(IHA).Results showed that the positive rates of antibody against Chlamydia in horses from Baise and Hechi were 11.62%(65/542)and 12.56%(56/446)respectively,positive rates detected in Tianyang district,Lingyun county and Bama county were relatively high among 12 counties.From 2021 to 2023,positive rates of antibody against Chlamydia in horses were 13.28%(32/241),10.78%(33/306)and 12.19%(54/443),while average positive rates were 12.04%(119/988)in total.Positive rates of antibody against Chlamydia in stallions and mares were 11.49%(55/480)and 12.6%(64/508),showing no significant difference between different genders.Results of this study have enriched the background data on the prevalence of Chlamydia infection among livestock,especially in horse herds,in China.
