| enterovibrio norvegicus gen. nov., sp. nov., isolated from the gut of turbot (scophthalmus maximus) larvae: a new member of the family vibrionaceae. | twenty-two isolates originating from the gut of healthy cultured turbot larvae in norway were investigated using a polyphasic approach. amplified fragment length polymorphism fingerprinting analysis showed that the isolates have typical patterns and form two main groups. phylogenetic analysis revealed that the isolates belong to the gamma-proteobacteria, with vibrio hollisae as their closest neighbour. dna-dna hybridization, chemotaxonomic and phenotypic analyses further proved that these isolat ... | 2002 | 12508862 |
| reclassification of vibrio hollisae as grimontia hollisae gen. nov., comb. nov. | the taxonomic positions of three representative strains of vibrio hollisae (lmg 17719(t), lmg 21416 and lmg 21538) were investigated by means of 16s rdna sequences and phenotypic data. v. hollisae strains (genbank/embl accession nos aj514909-aj514911) shared 99.5 % 16s rdna sequence similarity, but had only 94.6 % similarity to their closest phylogenetic neighbour, enterovibrio norvegicus. 16s rdna sequence similarity of v. hollisae and vibrio cholerae was only 91 %. these results suggest that v ... | 2003 | 13130058 |
| biodiversity of vibrios. | vibrios are ubiquitous and abundant in the aquatic environment. a high abundance of vibrios is also detected in tissues and/or organs of various marine algae and animals, e.g., abalones, bivalves, corals, fish, shrimp, sponges, squid, and zooplankton. vibrios harbour a wealth of diverse genomes as revealed by different genomic techniques including amplified fragment length polymorphism, multilocus sequence typing, repetetive extragenic palindrome pcr, ribotyping, and whole-genome sequencing. the ... | 2004 | 15353563 |
| application of sliding-window discretization and minimization of stochastic complexity for the analysis of faflp genotyping fingerprint patterns of vibrionaceae. | minimization of stochastic complexity (sc) was used as a method for classification of genotypic fingerprints. the method was applied to fluorescent amplified fragment length polymorphism (faflp) fingerprint patterns of 507 vibrionaceae representatives. as the current binclass implementation of the optimization algorithm for classification only works on binary vectors, the original fingerprints were discretized in a preliminary step using the sliding-window band-matching method, in order to maxim ... | 2005 | 15653853 |
| photobacterium rosenbergii sp. nov. and enterovibrio coralii sp. nov., vibrios associated with coral bleaching. | six new vibrio-like isolates originating from different species of bleached and healthy corals around magnetic island (australia) were investigated using a polyphasic approach. phylogenetic analyses based on 16s rrna, reca and rpoa gene sequences split the isolates in two new groups. strains lmg 22223(t), lmg 22224, lmg 22225, lmg 22226 and lmg 22227 were phylogenetic neighbours of photobacterium leiognathi lmg 4228(t) (95.6 % 16s rrna gene sequence similarity), whereas strain lmg 22228(t) was r ... | 2005 | 15774685 |
| pathogenicity of vibrios to rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss, walbaum) and artemia nauplii. | the taxonomy of marine vibrios has changed rapidly over the last two decades, and a wealth of new species have been identified. many vibrio species are pathogenic to fish and crustaceans; however, little is known about the virulence of many of the novel species. the purpose of this study was to determine the ability of various recent isolates of vibrios to cause disease in rainbow trout (oncorhynchus mykiss, walbaum) and crustacea, i.e. artemia nauplii. of 56 isolates, representing 26 species of ... | 2005 | 16104871 |
| reclassification of vibrio fischeri, vibrio logei, vibrio salmonicida and vibrio wodanis as aliivibrio fischeri gen. nov., comb. nov., aliivibrio logei comb. nov., aliivibrio salmonicida comb. nov. and aliivibrio wodanis comb. nov. | four closely related species, vibrio fischeri, vibrio logei, vibrio salmonicida and vibrio wodanis, form a clade within the family vibrionaceae; the taxonomic status and phylogenetic position of this clade have remained ambiguous for many years. to resolve this ambiguity, we tested these species against other species of the vibrionaceae for phylogenetic and phenotypic differences. sequence identities for the 16s rrna gene were > or =97.4 % among members of the v. fischeri group, but were < or =9 ... | 2007 | 18048732 |
| description of enterovibrio nigricans sp. nov., reclassification of vibrio calviensis as enterovibrio calviensis comb. nov. and emended description of the genus enterovibrio thompson et al. 2002. | eleven strains of halophilic, facultative anaerobes isolated from healthy and diseased dentex dentex and sparus aurata (bony fishes) cultured in spanish mediterranean fisheries have been studied by a polyphasic approach that included a wide phenotypic characterization, dna-dna hybridization and phylogenetic analysis using 16s rrna, reca and rpod gene sequences. all strains were phylogenetically related to enterovibrio species and vibrio calviensis. on the basis of sequence analysis and dna-dna h ... | 2009 | 19329591 |
