A total of 338 foot swabs were collected from different districts of AP and Telangana state and were subjected to PCR targeting 16S rRNA gene of D. nodosus. Out of 338 samples, 86 samples were found to be positive for PCR suggesting the presence of D. nodosus. Further all the PCR positive samples were subjected to multiplex-PCR for serogrouping. Out of 86 positive samples, 53 found to be belonged to ‘B’ serogroup followed by 24 ‘I’ serogroup, 6 ‘A’ serogroup, 2 ‘E’ serogroup and one sample ‘H’ serogroup. The overall prevalence of the D. nodosus was calculated as 16%. The prevalence of D. nodosus serogroups ‘B’, ‘I’, ‘A’, ‘E’ and ‘H’ was 61.6%, 27.9%, 6.9%, 2.3% and 1.2% respectively.
