. Toxoplasma gondii is one of the most common protozoan parasites with widespread
distribution globally. However, little information is available about the seroprevalence of T.
gondii infection in geese (Anser domestica) in China. In the present study, the seroprevalence
of T. gondii in geese were investigated in Hunan province, China. A total of 900 serum
samples were collected from ten administrative regions in Hunan province, China, and assayed
for T. gondii antibodies by Indirect Haemagglutination (IHA) test. Overall, 21.1% of the
animals were positive for T. gondii antibodies. The results of the present survey indicated the
presence of T. gondii infection in geese in Hunan province, China. Therefore, it is important
to execute integrated control strategies and measures to prevent and control T. gondii
infection in geese in this province. This is the first report seroprevalence of T. gondii in geese
in Hunan province, China.
