Abstract / descriptionThis study aimed to determine the prevalence of FPV and CPV infections among cats and dogs in Gujarat, India, compare the diagnostic performance of rapid antigen testing (RAT), conventional polymerase chain reaction (PCR), and quantitative PCR (qPCR), characterize circulating viral variants through VP2 gene sequencing and phylogenetic analysis, and investigate evidence of cross-species circulation.
