vibrio panuliri sp. nov., a marine bacterium isolated from spiny lobster, panulirus penicillatus and transfer of vibrio ponticus from scophthalmi clade to the newly proposed ponticus clade. | a novel marine bacterium, strain lbs2(t) was isolated from eggs carried on pleopods of the spiny lobster collected from andaman sea. heterotrophic growth occurred at 1-7% nacl. 16s rrna gene sequence similarity revealed the strain lbs2(t) belonged to the genus vibrio and showed above 97% similarity with eight type strains of the genus vibrio. multilocus analysis based on ftsz, gapa, gyrb, mreb, pyrh reca, rpoa, and topa revealed lbs2(t) formed a separate cluster with vibrio ponticus dsm 16217(t) ... | 2014 | 25445014 |
