background :   vibrio species including v. cholera , v. mimicus , v. parahaemolyticus , and v. vulnificus may cause gastrointestinal diseases after seafood consumption, and wound infections in swimmers and fishermen after exposing to seawater. this study determined the prevalence of the four vibrio species in tonkabon and ramsar recreational beach water (approximately 200 meter far from the pla...

  This study was carried out to investigate the occurrence of potentially pathogenic species of vibrio in sea water and estuarine environments of the Caspian Sea in the Golestan province of Iran. A total of 127 water samples from coastal waters as well as from river and estuaries were collected and analyzed by culture, during April and September 2001. Following prompt centrifugation, the resusp...

Vibrio fischeri belongs to the Vibrionaceae, a large family of marine gamma-proteobacteria that includes several dozen species known to engage in a diversity of beneficial or pathogenic interactions with animal tissue. Among the small number of pathogenic Vibrio species that cause human diseases are Vibrio cholerae, Vibrio parahaemolyticus, and Vibrio vulnificus, the only members of the Vibrion...

Among the more than 70 different Vibrio species inhabiting marine, estuarine, and freshwater ecosystems, 12 are recognized as human pathogens. The warm subtropical climate of the Black Sea coastal area and inland regions of Georgia likely provides a favorable environment for various Vibrio species. From 2006 to 2009, the abundance, ecology, and diversity of clinically important Vibrio species w...

This study reported the incidence of potentially pathogenic Vibrio spp. in fresh seafood from Itu creek. Studies were carried out to isolate, identify and characterized different Vibrio species in fish, crayfish and periwinkle obtained from the Itu creeks. Different parts analyzed using standard microbiological techniques were the gills, intestine and the body surfaces. The Vibrio species isola...

Vibrio sp. YB1T (=ATCC BAA-450T =LMG 20984T), the aetiological agent of tissue lysis of the coral Pocillopora damicornis, was characterized as a novel Vibrio species on the basis of 16S rDNA sequence, DNA-DNA hybridization data (G + C content is 45.6 mol%), AFLP and GTG5-PCR genomic fingerprinting patterns and phenotypic properties, including the cellular fatty acid profile. The predominant fat...

a total of 116 marine fishes and sediments were collected from persian gulf shore near bushehr in order to isolate vibrio species. after culturing on thiosulphate- cirate- bile salts- sucrose and with biochemical tests, 30 isolates showed vibrio characteristics which were categorized in 7 vibrio species, v. anguillarum, v. alginalyticus, v. harveyi, v. vulnfiicus, v. ordalii, v. carchariae and ...

A new Vibrio strain, V1B, was isolated from the intestinal tract of the scallop Argopecten purpuratus Strain V1B is closely related to the species Vibrio inhibens BFLP-10, which has been characterized as showing antagonistic activity against pathogenic Vibrio sp. We report here the draft genome of the isolated Vibrio sp. strain V1B.
