[ Objective] To investigate the prevalence of Mycoplasma oviovipneurnoniae in Qinghai Province. [ Method] With positive indirect hemagglutination test kit for detecting antibodies against Mycoplasma oviovipneumoniae, 965 sheep sera and 208 goat sera were collected in Qinghai Province from 2006 to 2008 and detected. [ Result ] The positive rate of sheep sera and goat sera was 30.4% and 19.7%, respectively. The posi- tive rate of sheep sera collected from different regions ranged from 19.7% to 40.2%, and that of goat sere ranged from 6.6% to 22.2%. In addition, the incidence in winter and spring was higher than that in summer and autumn. [ Conclusion ] The infection rate of Mycoplasrna ovipneumoniae should be higher in Qinghai region than in other western regions, so it is necessary to strengthen the prevention and control of this disease.
