Evidence for an intermediate colony morphology of Vibrio vulnificus.

Applied and environmental microbiology - 1 Jun 2006

Rosche Thomas M, Smith Ben, Oliver James D

Abstract excerpt

Vibrio vulnificus causes both food-borne disease and wound infections. Most V. vulnificus strains express capsular polysaccharide (CPS), which is required for the virulence of this organism. Under standard growth conditions, CPS expression is lost at a relatively high frequency (10(-3) to 10(-4)), resulting in a switch from an opaque (Op, CPS+) colony morphology to a translucent (Tr, CPS-) colony morphology. The...
